Default Re: More Chevelle updates

The trans isn't the problem, it's been trouble-free save for now having a wasted tailshaft seal--which I'm sure is due in no part to having the driveshaft in & out a dozen times.

The problem is the power and the weight--plus the fact that the car usually dead hooks.

It's looking more & more like I'm going to have to go to some sort of a twin disc set-up...which is just that much more $$$ that I can't spare right now.

On top of that, this clutch fiasco has severely screwed my hopes & plans to get a few other projects wrapped up before the end of the year.

Manual transmissions are undeniably cool, but OMG are they one colossal friggin' pain in the ass--specifically, right around the wallet region. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img]
