Found the clutch springs between the pressure plate and clutch disc which obviously caused the jamming. Looking for suggestions on clutch disc and throwout bearing replacements. Brand,style, material of construction or whatever. lol. Everything else looked good except maybe a little burn on the flywheel disc. Whats the ramifications of not resurfacing the flywheel disc? And the best places to take it to get it done without someone screwing it up. Id hate to see it get done uneven and cause a major issue with the rear seal or main bearing from being out of balance.
It looks like I'll be going with the rebuilt trans I bought a few months back with the different gearing also. It will require the tailshaft swap unfortunatly. Also will be purchasing a mini starter to allow more clearance from the passenger side header. Will be rerouting the starter wires away from the header also. Any suggestions on that would be great too. I would like to get that done before reinstalling the headers rather than looking for the best place after theyre back in.
Thanks again,
Bill
