what a freakin night! :/ so i had just finished putting my new ls7 clutch kit in my car. took me about an hour and a half just tinkerin around with it(already had my tranny out). well the first thing that went wrong was when i was putting the slave cylinder in, my speed bleeder i ordered has a 45* angle on the end that goes to the slave so it wouldnt work. had to just keep the stock piece on it. didnt bother me much. i have alway bled the clutch like that anyways so whatever. started cleaning up tools and realized i forgot to put my new rear seal in. WTF! jerked it back down real quick and pulled the old seal to see that it is much thicker than the one i got from orielleys. i literally put it in with my thumb and trigger finger. it is thicker in the way that one tire is wider than another. not diameter. should i be worried about this?? ive always had to do a little more persuasion than that to get seals in. im stopping now because its late and too much **** just went wrong at once. FML!

good idea to walk away after a long night. when stuff starts going wrong and u start forgetting **** it means its time to step back and think about it for a few hours and get the determination back in u

im the kinda guy that i take it personally if something doesn't go right. it makes me mad and even more determined. on the other hand tho, i do have many tools in the woods across from my house. lol
its always funny how sometimes you can work on something stupid for hours and get frustrated and mad, only to take a break and come back and complete the task in a matter of seconds.
