Clutch is in and Nick may have set his personal best. I count it as under 6 hours since it took 6 exactly to do but we had to run to Advance Auto to rent a slide hammer...some one took the one from the shop and hasn't returned it! We also took a little time to eat Toppers. Thanks again Nick, feels great so far..can't wait to get it broke in some more and re-adjust my pedal up a touch.

On the way home I fell victim to the 'not letting it idle after pulling the battery issue' since it stalled like 5 times from the shop over to 94. I stopped at a gas station about a 1/3 of the way home to get something to drink and pulled the battery cable again and let it idle for a bit which fixed it. Then another 20 minutes up the road a state trooper pulled me over for loud exhaust. He was obviously done beating off and had to do something so he picked me...oh well..fix it ticket. Thanks for the silencer hook up Pete

Yeah, you need to slip it like stock. It has smooth engagement. Little bit of chatter when it's disengaged but not too bad. It has a little 'shimmy' if you are engaging it at a lower rpm like 1,200.

Even while it hasn't broken in very much it still grabs hard if you aren't paying attention

So my PS3 is already on it's way back...which has me worried since they received it Friday morning. I hope they didn't just ship it back without really doing anything.
