I was thinking although it should be simple we could do a Taco-Bill style write up on this

Does anyone have a GT500 that comes out to the Kemah thing? I have an 08 with the "Normal Clutch Chatter"....but damn it seems really loud. I was wanting to compare my "normal" noise to someone else that has the same issue.

Thanks
Law
PLstang has a GT500 engine, but I think he is still running the GT transmission.

I have the GT500 Motor and 6 speed trans. I have an after market DS.

The clutch will be going soon to make room for a little something from Spec!

2. Drink beer.
3. Car is magicly done on Friday evenings, if not.....see step two.
