Got the Tranny Out!

Here are my victory pictures. Now to get the flywheel out. I'm going to start calling around today. While I'm at it, should I just replace the flywheel with a light performance flywheel? I'm willing to spend no more than $300 on this total project, and I can get all the clutch components for $123. That leaves me with ~$260 to spend on various parts. Anything that would be a safe bet to replace while I've got the tranmission out? I DO NOT want to go pulling this out again anytime soon.

Well, considering your budget, and your problems, I would just get the flywheel resurfaced, or find a cheap one to replace if neccessary. Don't forget to do the main engine seal while your in there!

Big yay, everything is ok except for the clutch disk. I guess a spring had popped out and prevented it from engaging the flywheel. I have no idea how the flywheel wasn't torn apart, but it wasn't! Here is the old disk, which I have already replaced for $29.99! The only problem now is that the head of one of the bolts from the pressure plate to the flywheel cracked off, and tomorrow I need to chisel it out. Baah.
