Take it to Orange County Transmission in Costa Mesa, Dave really knows what he is doing and has lots and lots of experience. You can call him at 714 546-9900. Tell him the other Dave sent you.

I had Dave at Orange County Transmissions install the clutch.
He allowed me to bring in my own parts and charged me 400
and had it done in one day. Awesome is all I have to say. Clutch feels perfect.
Thanks again for the recomendation Dave.
Jim
