    1G Clutch disengagement issues/ Recommended Clutch

    Use the upper switch. A solid hub street disc, or a solid 4 puck WILL shift faster than a twin. The discs have less inertia. Your measurements with the calipers tell you nothing. you need to measure the disc thickness, pp thickness, spring thickness, and fulcrum to mounting surface...

    1G Clutch disengagement issues/ Recommended Clutch

    step height is close enough imo. Your issues are elsewhere.Be very careful you don't overextend things and break shit. Run pedal with hand while adjusting.

    1G Clutch disengagement issues/ Recommended Clutch

    Jack is the only one besides me that ever actually went after a solution, but he stopped short.End of story is that if finger position step height or shimming effects your release you do not have enough travel.All you have to do is bolt together a few clutches and open them up with a...

    1G Clutch disengagement issues/ Recommended Clutch

    The 2900 is tough to make work but it does. Log your up shift times just use the upper pedal switch. I've seen 280ms on a 2900 with a solid hub street disc at 9500RPM and a beat up old trans.The ACT discs are very soft and the chunk out like that if you don't have good release and you...

    Altered Mental Status(1G AWD 5spd)

    It's not likely the step height. You could have the flywheel cut 10 times and doubtful it would change it enough to cause problems. You didn't grind shit off with a scotchbrite pad. A new flywheel won't fix your problem. If one got all anal about it and tried to keep all that in spec...

    Altered Mental Status(1G AWD 5spd)

    i agree, as flat as they are, good chance fingers hit the disc before it gets fully released. There is also as good of chance that the disc is junk too since trans was put in on a jack.It's an interesting issue. Everyone gets all bent out of shape if the step height is off 0.005" or...

    Spyder Reusing Valve Keepers with the Same Valves

    Lapping to improve sealing is a waste of time. If you lap enough to remove all imperfections you will just wear the valve face all concave and round the edges of the seat. The defined angles will be gone and the seating will be terrible. A couple quick swipes to clean it off and check the...

    1G Stupid M/T Trans Removal Question

    Because that is not the problem. It is a self adjusting clutch for starters. Secondly it's a simple geometry problem. To get the most travel out from the least travel in the fork should start and end at the same angle. So that the slave is as close to perpendicular to the fork as possible...

    1G Stupid M/T Trans Removal Question

    Use a cherry picker, get a loop welded to a bolt that threads into the boss in the top of the trans. Trans on jacks ruins clutch discs. Leave the driver side axle in the hub, but you have to unbolt the carrier off the block. You have to be careful because you can easily f*** the seal, and you...

    1G ATI Super Damper Offset from Alternator/Water Pump Pulleys 91 6-bolt

    Unless they have changed something it is the bs sprocket/tin, or the spacer/tin, or like a kiggly trigger wheel. Only 1 of those, no other spacer needed, and then the hub goes up against that. It is possible your damper is missing pieces. There are several parts that go in the shell. I have...

    1G 1990 Dynatek ARC-2 installed/impression

    Try a boost a pump to power the stock coils. I've read somewhere that the factory PTU has a current limiter built in so you may not get anywhere with that. The factory coils are pretty tough though. I've never found a reason to use anything else. I know everyone is hyped on the COP stuff...

    1G 1990 Dynatek ARC-2 installed/impression

    I never had issues with the ARC-2. i think most that do are because of user error or shoddy wiring. Ditch the ptu and tach adapter and they are mint. I just can't say that I noticed much improvement in spark. Even with the big Taylor wires I had to gap the plugs down a to about 0.022ish to...

    ECMlink After upgrading injectors, do you also have to upgrade the fuel pump right away?

    If you are planning on increasing the airflow, then yes you need a good pump. A small stock pump in good condition would be enough to run the car with stock like airflow. I suspect that you are going to turn it up, otherwise the 1220's would be silly. And it sounds like you have a garbage...

    I have thought about doing ITB's on my car, but honestly IDK if it's a good move. Intake at the rear that's a hot low pressure zone, not good for power. Unless you are going to put a scoop and an air box on it. I had planned on doing a slide valve. A butterfly gets in the way of the air...

    How to fix your clutch that won't release.

    How to fix your clutch that won't release.

    Over the years I've done a lot of testing with these cars. I've probably spent more money on testing clutches than an average build costs. - Not bragging, just saying I've tried a lot of stuff. One thing that sticks out, is virtually all performance clutches require more throw out bearing...

    Manley H Beams Vs Eagle H Beams

    From the eagles and manleys I've had here the manleys have a thicker beam. The must have less meat around the big end then if they are 25 grams lighter. I went high 10's on my eagles back in the day. Made enough torque to break a wiseco wrist pin with them.

    It's at least a 2600 MB010X as it has the reinforcement welded into the top of it. Beyond that hard to tell. If it's a 2900 or a 3200 good luck making it work. You can have someone with a press and a good gauge compress it and see. Use a dial indicator to meausre the deflection and record...

    1G Couple noob-tastic 5 spd questions

    The transmission input shaft is required to be within 0.01" of concentric of the crankshaft. If it is not the flywheel and clutch start to "orbit" around the input shaft. It will make the disc try to move side to side on the flywheel till it self clearances itself. End result is poor...

    Altered Mental Status(1G AWD 5spd)

    If it spins buttery smooth, it likely has no preload and needs service. It ought to have ~20in/lbs of rotational drag. Other than that there really isn't a way to tell without taking it apart. If it's a fresh rebuild it should have enough assembly lube on it you could drive for miles before it...

    Yes. Put the bottom gear in without the thrust washer, and use a bolt/nut to hold it down and a big millermatic 250 set on burn this f***er down and have at it. Fill 'er in. I usually tack a few spots first which gets some heat in it, then burn it in good. I wrap in a welding blanket after...

    1G Welded Center Diff FWD Questions

    Holy shit 10/10 destruction! But yes weld that bi*** and send it. If you are going to keep running it FWD, find a 2g fwd trans. They have closer ratios and drive off 4th gear so it should last longer.

    Center differentials in 2023.

    The stock cross shaft is terrible, especially when cut down to use 4 spiders. The peak stress in the drive pins is way more than the expected 2x increase from half the load points. bad, bad.

    Center differentials in 2023.

    I've never been a fan of the way most others do 4 spider center differentials. The floating cross shaft is a poor idea, adding 2 more spider gears barely helps. The cross shaft is allowed to turn in the housing, while the gear is held flat against the out side. End effect is the shaft becomes...
