Finally My new clutch is in, and it was a bitch to get it all done. I still have 2 items left to put on, the Bracket on the shift linkage (it was lost somehow!) and the o2 sensor. The clutch shifts like butter!!!!!! Better than it did when brand new. I guess it paid off to do it myself. I had help. The tranny is not too heavy but it took 3 of us to get it back in. 2 on bottom and me on top. I pressure washed the tranny before i put it back in. I am tired, dirty, and feeling good!!!! Thanks for all your tips. I totally forgot my camera, so I can't do a writeup with pics. The only question I have is how long should I do the break in period? WAAAAAHOOOOOO!!!!

Congratulations man. Yeah, the hardest part is getting the trans back on the block.
Drive normally for about 500 miles. Then drive it like you stole it.

yeah i love it. We went to 2 different junkyards looking for this bracket and i grabbed 2 of them just to be on the safe side. I also grabbed a lug nut (lost one of my locking ones) and a pigtail for the drivers side marker. I have a extra one if anyone needs it. Plenty more parts at this junkyard too, let me know if you need anything and I can prob grab it for ya.

awesome man congrats, it wasn't that bad huh...hey after your brake in, let me know how that clutch holds while boosting, there's a clutch store in my area that sells then at a good price but i'm not sure of buying till i know how much it can hold. hopefully it can handle atleast 450ft/lbs.
