hey bro no disrespect but it sounds like you have no clue what you are doing the best thing to do is either have some one who has done it before(on an evo) help you or just take it some where who specializes in evo's if you didnt know that the only way to get the engine out is through the bottom you should not be droppin g a clutch much less an engine. . . like i said i dont mean to sound mean/disrespectfull at all

 

im well capable of doing it myself, i was just thinkng about other options... and what clutch is suggested if the act is no good?

 

From someone that has done 2 clutch installs... Logically pulling the entire engine doesnt even make much sense..... the job is a bit difficult but it isnt the worst thing ever... just have to make sure you follow all the steps and try not to rush. Air tools make it alot easier but both i did were on jackstands and thats a *****! anyway if you do it on jackstands make sure you get the car as high as possible..... good luck and btw the act clutch is great unless you launch the car constantly.... it handles a launch here and there just fine...

 

exedy clutch and if you want you can pm me and i will give you a step by step walk through

 

will do and thanx guys

 

does anyone run the exedy stage2??

 

get new engine mounts from avid if you do pull your engine. The only difficult part is releasing the clutch fork, either way you do it.

 

I know Warrtalon did, but Id like to know who is using it now and what their opinions are of it.

 

Just bolted tranny up two hours ago from clutch install (car on ramp), hands are all cut, knuckles smashed, knees - well, anyhow. If you have a car lift available I would say pulling the car off tranny/engine assy there on a platform would be the way to go, you'll have room to clean, inspect and do some preventative maintenance too.

Pulling the engine from the top would seem to be a potential nightmare to me, you'll still have to pull tranny from bottom. It would be like "what do I do now, my engine is up there, tranny on floor and car between.

I hurt, pay someone that does it for a job

 

my clutch and flywheel came in today, any sugestions on the install... like torque specifications on the flywheel and any places to grease up?? just anything to help me out.. thanx

 

Use GL5 on transfer splines, lithium grease on fork moving parts, dialectric grease on two O-rings (tranny-transf) and fork boosts, and use a copper or aluminum anti sieze (sparingly) on areas you see corrosion.
