Hmmm glad you guys suggested that! Haha, no not the Z28.. im not retarded... well.. maybe I am considering how I blew the clutch...

I think I will go with the P/T clutch.. about the same price as the stock and I am sure its much stronger!! Anyone have suggestions on getting the nut off the driveshaft where its at the rotor? Its being a royal PITA... and I have freakin' clutch dust in my skin! Worse than fiberglass.....

i would get the PT clutch from autozone
the other ones dont state if the are a modular or not????....dont forget you need a modular, unless you have a non-modular flywheel from a 95 neon laying around

Yes yes, thats only the 5th times I've gotten that, Spud.... But yeah, I will call Autozone here ina few and see if they got one in stock.. gotta wait for the pimpvan before I can go over there... thanks for the opinion

EDIT: Then again, maybe I wont because nobody has them in stock today [:@] I might just be going with a stock clutch... BAH!

I just went to Advance and bought their clutch for the neon since no-one had the PT in stock... 269 or something like that... but I STILL cant get that nut off the end of the driveshaft!! I've now bent a huge screwdriver, a wrench and a freakin ratchet!! Im getting my buddy now, he does work on semis, to get me some of his BFTs (Big #$*%ing Tools) hoping we can bust that thing loose.. But the brand I bought was Precision I beleive...
