Default Some progress.. Cobra ate my TB, PB, Clutch, And Flywheel v. 2.0

The car is currently at G-Force and almost all the parts are there except for my new clutch / flywheel. The car should be running this week sometime, but until then here's a couple of pics to better show what caused all the carnage.

Ouch, is that the TB (in the pc) that went or the PB? How did you manage to mangle it that bad?

That's the throwout bearing. I have no clue how it got hurt, but once it was it was game over. lol, Sadly as you can tell it's the stronger metal TB, not the wussy plastic one.

If it's done today or tomorrow I might bring it out to Joes weds night meet.

Wow, didn't know the mustangs came with a plastic tb - that seems like an disaster waiting to happen!! Had to replace my tb as well on the LT1 last year and man those for our cars are quite pricey. Pretty easy for me to do now as I've had this damn tranmission out so many times I think I can do it blindfolded -
