do you know if it's a stock clutch in there still?


Clutches on RWD last about 80-100k if driving properly.

Since you bought the car used what makes you think it's the original clutch in there still?

grinding is most likely due to your transmission synchros going out

get juan of these, straight cut gears

I only use OS Giken since I can't afford a hollinger box


oh yeah my project rolls now! I'll have my engine finished by the end of the March I think. I'm waiting for my ARP stud kit to come in along with some other things
