    Don't use the old tranny. I don't want fluid sprayed on my pretty car.

    That's assuming I can stay in front of you, but I do have a catch can. When that fills up, it just goes all over the inside of my trunk.

    I know you are new to CMC Aaron but we don't allow old Tranny's at the track. What you and Mark do and who you fool around with away from the track is none of our business.

    Looks like a decent showing for this weekend. Looking forward to seeing you guys...not so much T1 :/

    Plastic alignment tools do suck. One trick I've used in the past is to use the plastic alignment tool to get the clutch close, then bolt on the bellhousing to the back of the engine. Slide the transmission in close, and have someone press the clutch pedal. This then allows the clutch disc to move into alignment with the transmission and everything slides on easy.

    Did you change your pilot bearing on the crankshaft? I recently had a battle with an incorrect one installed by the machine shop that cost me days.

    Equal numbers of AI vs CMC? That's nuts! Now, lets see if we still have 13 AI cars running by the first race, that would be even crazier.

    My throwout bearing/ hydraulic salve cylinder is mounted on the input shaft, so the trans has to be installed to release the clutch.

    I changed everything but the pilot bearing.

    If I'm there I will have plenty of room. This whole RV to get my family to the track thing really failed.

    Calder - you still up for doing some ribs? How many racks can you do? I'll buy 'em if you smoke 'em.
    Damn, just saw this. So it's pretty obvious I don't pay attention to most of what you guys post on here. :/ I told my son to take the truck Saturday since I was just driving out but I'll see if I can work something out with him - probably bring the smokers tonight. If I bring both smokers I could do 20-25 racks of baby backs through the day. If you bring your monster grill I could pack the first 15 and finish them up on the grill. Let me know if you still want to do that. Left you a vmail Dave.
