I'm not expecting an explanation of "how to." Just seeing who's done it, or attempted and what happened.

RE: Changing clutch

I have done it. Installed a centerforce dual friction clutch. It took me 4 or 5 hours.

I have a 97 GT with BBK long tubes and I replaced the clutch and man oh man was it a pain in the rear. The headers are so much in the way that you can't jockey the tranny around.

RE: Changing clutch

it's a PITA. if you've got good set of tools with some extensions to get to the two top bolts on the tranny, you should be able to get it done.

I've got tools. Just figure i'll do my research (way) before it becomes a problem. =]
