Message So I decided to retire the stock clutch and install a new Southbend Stage III OFE, which was collecting dust since Christmas.

I also installed a cromoly pivot ball, new slave and SS clutch line.

I refilled with 3 qts of redline MT-90, but I can't feel a difference. Most of the original fluid found it's way onto my head and clothes unexpectedly.



The clutch needed a lot of adjustment to engage at the right height, but overall I'm impressed with it.



The z looks nervous





Old clutch, probably still a few thousand miles left on this one. I never felt it slip.





Old Flywheel





New shiny flywheel



For those of you that seem to think you can just push grease in a hole and pop out a pilot bushing, I beg to differ. I had to chisel this POS out and make a special tool to pop in the new one out of wood.

Some pics after the fun was over








I also did some redecorating
