Hey Guys sorry I mssed some of this.

I was out in the shop doing a bunch of stuff. I started at 7am and worked until 3pm then took a break and had to go recover a car up at Northern Lights. We did not get back until after 10pm with a Pizza from Jeno's here in Monroe

I did have my Phone on waiting for your call's

The Lock tite on the Clutch will need to be cleaned off with brake cleaner. Do not want to leave it on there even to go back in Nates car.

As far as the fealer gauge deal 99.99% of the time all is well. We Do check the Twin Disk setups that way though but I have yet to find one out of spec.

The Biggest thing, and I can not stess this enough, is to NOT let the transmission hang from the disk half way inserted. This bends the center of the disk and will cause a bunch of problems. Cutch not releaseing , clutch sticking on shifts, clutch dragging making it hard to shift and or get in gear along with many other problems. With the wieght of a t56 it is real easy to do this and ruin a clutch before you even start. T5s are more forgiving as they are much lighter...but many time so are there clutches

Good luck guys. call me if you need any thing
