Cant find anyone to install clutch

I need to get my ACT Clutch and Flywheel installed, and I cant find anyone to do it.

I called Wwerks and their busy this whole month with SEMA at stuff, I called WorldOne 3 times, everytime they said they would call me back and they haven't called me back once. A local tranny shop near me wants $1,200. Mitsubishi dealer wants $900. I dont really feel that I should have to pay over $700.

Does anyone know of any other shops or any other people that can do clutch installs ASAP, I'm driving my Evo around now with a OEM clutch thats slipping, so I need to get this new clutch installed ASAP!!!

Doing it myself is out of the question, I dont have the time, tools or shop space.

Thanks for your help

PM me and I can set you up w/ the guy who did mine. We can talk about who you can order your clutch from and flywheel. I would do resurface flywheel (which i can hook you up w/ too), but its your money. Let me know...?

You can try Axiom....... I had my clutch install at illtech and they broke my EGR valve. Brought the car in the next day and they blamed the broken EGR valve on the person who install my injectors months ago (Lucas). IMO I would not recommend going to illtech.

I didn't see a part in the post about the shop needing to be in the Seattle area, so Ill reccomend English Racing, I believe its around $400 for the install but don't quote me on it.

I think you need more than just one guy. It's like 3 man job when your trying to put the tranny in right. But he could be the $hit thou.....

If you want to make the drive we can do it this week. 5spd ACD cars are $450. I have factory diaqueen and reline fluids in stock.

We really don't have a good waiting area but it will be done in about 7hr with lunch if you want to wait.

The man of the hour has arrived. If you dont get it done by the guy I was talking about, then Lucas would def be the guy to go to if you are willing to make the drive. Just have to stay out of boost, thats all...
