Default RE: my poor clutch..

I replaced the cable. I bought the whole kit from americanmuscle.com my clutch had started to smell 2 whenever i got on it and when i took the clutch out it was in perfect condition. the cable made it slip and it was way out of adjustment. Mine was the opposite of yours. my clutch was STIFF. way stiffer than that terminators. When i took the cable off it would barely slide. yours might be broke if its not the clutch

np. if that dont work. yeah your clutch blew up. but thats kinda early for it to break. my cable was messed up ever since i bought the car at 50,000 miles so i dont know how long it has been broke before i had it

ORIGINAL: Fizzics Boy

dont get an aluminum flywheel, they really dont help much unless ur pushing out big power. the only real difference ull see in on is that itll rev quicker and the engine speed will drop a little quicker. ull also need to get ur rotating assembly balanced again if u get one. i say just get ur current flywheel resurfaced. as for putting a clutch in, itll take a day to do. the tranny needs to be dropped, the old clutch removed, new one put in. and if you dont have access to a lift itll be a pain in the butt. when i did my exhuast, i did it on jackstands and it was a royal pain. if you really wanna save some money and do it your self it is possible, but if money isnt that much of an issue just save yourself the trouble and have it done at a shop.
Isn't that kind've a contradictory statement. It wont help much except that your motor will rev faster. isnt that what happens when you make more power?!

I read that the aluminum flywheel is not good for every day driving, is this true?
