I had to get towed home I called the tow company @ 1:30 and they got there near 6pm and to make matters worse the dude and his chick were a little drunk then after 35 min into the tow they stoped off at there trailer and picked up a 12 pack for the 3 hour tow from hell by this time I was like screw it give me a beer I needed something to calm my nerves they tryed to charge me for inroute miles to get to me as well as my tow miles I was like BS it was bad enogh being 187 miles from home not 219 @ 2.50 a mile A A A picked up the first 100 miles
My buddy Jason and I tore it apart last night and it did some nice damage the pressure plate let go blew chunks out of the bell housing and cracked it all to hell . Cracked the block by the sarter and put some big dents in my floor plan it will be running again tonight I have had a new rev loc and pressure plate sitting around incase this ever happened and a bellhousing as well. Im sure the new clutch will hold better then the single disk now its time to break out the welder
