Clutch job

My long-term clutch job is done. The help from this site was fantastic. Not just in very prompt and helpful responses to my questions, but in many cases, there were others who asked questions that got responses that were of great benefit. Thanks.

By the way, the shudder/vibration when downshifting that is helped by rev matching I believe is an early symptom of the rubber center going bad. However it does reinforce a good habit that carries over, even when the new clutch makes it unnecessary.

Congrats,
Hope to join you soon. So far my clutch is in as well as new engine mounts, the A/C delete kit, and a late tube header set. Hoping to bolt up the Torque tube and tranny tomorrow so if you've got any tips not covered in Haynes or Clark's let me know. Of course I've still got the entire new front suspension to put in, but I'm hoping it'll be on the road in a week.
