higgy Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 Had a fab day fittind the new clutchand mounts today [:#] I decided it would be easyer to remove the engine rather than taking the gearbox out. I also fitted new Samco radiator hoses and a new gearbox mount as well. The new clutch will cope with 700 flbt .so that should do just fine[] Higgy
wrxchris Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 i think ur goin to need a 700ftlb clutch!!! knees are still shakin lol
_jac_ Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 GO Higgy GO, the crazy horse is back on track. this is one to watch

higgy Posted July 2, 2007 Author Posted July 2, 2007 Think you fell off your rocker as a kid mate[] More than once mate[:#] lol Higgy
higgy Posted July 2, 2007 Author Posted July 2, 2007 You are still crazy.......when are you goung out to play? Peter i will be on track on the 28th of july , aslong as i dont get blown up in london this weekend (off to see metalica at the wembly arena) Higgy
z1000 Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 Looking forward to seeing the beast on track. How long did it take to do the clutch and is taking the engine out the easiest way for future refrence ?
higgy Posted July 2, 2007 Author Posted July 2, 2007 Hey bud It took me around 7 hours and the main reason for doing so was that i had to drain the fluids to fit the new hoses. It all depends on what you are going to be doing . I also took the chance to do a few small mods whilst it was out[] Higgy

I also took the chance to do a few small mods whilst it was out[] Higgy Just my clutch will need to be done sometime and the gearbox looks bloody heavy but i have access to a pit so it might be easier than lifting engine out just wondered. Does the new clutch mean it can be re tweaked to it's full potential now ?[]
