🔧 BUILD and here we go..... IROC

Anyway. It's from when I left my car outside in that pouring rain that left 2 inches of water on my floor boards. LMAO.

oh yea and I've been using the exploding shipping foam for trans now. It blows up and expands and hugs the weird contour of a trans.

Also. I have zero idea what a good/bad clutch/flywheel looks like... Thoughts?

I think as long as it doesn’t look like it’s heat treated your good lol I had one come out of my evo back in the day and it was dark blue tinted

 

[DEEZUZ]

I mean, it's out. Preeeety sure I'm changing it.

 

[sktchy]

I'd send that and get another coming for when it doesn't go anymore so you don't have to deal with the tty bolts too

Might as well

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

I’ll come by and collect all that stuff you’re taking out in may. Thanks

2 inner springs are loose. Assume this isn't good.

 

[DEEZUZ]

I'm relieved to find some failure cause I was getting some odd noises at end of season. I'm sure the water didn't help.

Hi Alex

Dear Google,

Is my clutch supposed to sound like a tambourine?

 

[DEEZUZ]

Reverse gear and synchro are trashed again.. Can't go any further til I get the puller.

 

[EmersonHart13]

So this wont be running for Saturday?

If I was motivated maybe

You look like you can use a couple of cats to supervise ya

 

[DEEZUZ]

Probably just going with the same clutch, which was a luk ls7 clutch. It's a stock car so a stock clutch is fine.

Unless some has a strong opinion on getting something else...?

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

From the look of the finish on that pressure plate and flywheel the oil wasn't fully bled out of the metal pores. Let a really light solvent like low voc (slow dry) brake cleaner sit on top of the friction surfaces for a bit and then wipe and repeat it a couple of times then use the fast dry stuff a few more.

I do the same thing with paper towels under and on the friction disc to bleed out any of the storage preservative oil since for some reason they like to put the piece of preservative paper right against your friction material.

Break up the circumferential Machining grooves with some radial scratches via sandpaper about a 100ish grit.

 

[DEEZUZ]

Will probably get the flywheel turned.

 

[Turbocharged400sbc]

It should not be turned it should be ground with those hard spots

 

[DEEZUZ]

Whatever the term is. Lol. Shop should know what to do with it.

 

[DEEZUZ]

I also definitely did not break the clutch in. I didn't know that was a thing.

But this is the first stick shift vehicle I've ever owned and it has 5 years of abuse on it. Lol
