well got HEAPS done today lol, spent about 9 hours flat today.
done the following
- put the gearbox in
- put the clutch, pressure plate and thrust bearings in
- put the tailshaft in
- bolted the motor in
- ran all the engine bay wiring through
BUT
i had **** loads of problems.
the gear box i bought is a VR SS with a 10spline shaft.
the flywheel i got was SUPPOSED to be a VR SS one.
turns out the fly wheel is a VR Clubsport flywheel.
you cant buy a clutch to fit a vr ss box onto a vr hsv flywheel.
vr ss box runs a 255mm flywheel with a 10spline shaft
vr clubsport runs a 263mm flywheel with a 26spline shaft.
so i ended up with a Excedy Heavy Duty VL 5ltr clutch.
this mean si was able to use the vr ss box with a vr clubsport flywheel.
so i have a 10 spline vr ss box with a vr clubby 263mm flywheel and vl 5ltr heavy duty clutch (which is the same as a vr clubby one but running 10spline instead of 26spline)
but it took us 3 hours to figure out why the vn - vr clutch's wouldnt fit or the vs ones, but got it all in the end.
