Cheers tones but it doesn't look that good at the moment, when the cooler pipe came off it pushed it towards the blower pulley and the bolt that holds the pulley in has cut into the pipe and has sent shards of metal all over the bay...

gearbox is fine Uni, its the slave cylinder, $2600 and it will be fine with a decent twin plate clutch

Ahhhh still sucks to hear of the money spent to fix.

just got the deal of a lifetime! a brand new McLeod RST twin plate clutch good for 800rwhp and feels like a stock clutch for $1080 delivered to my door

Nothing beats a bargain

spent a bit of time on the ss today, managed to fit the new K&N pod filter, put the cooler pipe back on properly and connected everything to make my oil pressure gauge work

Where did you get your clutch from?
I will be in the market for one before too long.
I don't think I'll need one for 800 hp, but like the idea of a good strong clutch.

tick performance Tones. I got 2 quotes before I started looking towards the USA, a single plate that can handle the power (but is way to heavy for my back to deal with) was 1200 and a twin plate that had a standard clutch feel was 2200... both not fitted

 

[Tones]

Cheers for that,
Hopefully my slave cylinder will hold out for a little while yet, but if I'm replacing the slave, I'll be doing the clutch at the same time.

thats my reasoning for the twin plate Tones, my hd clutch still has probably 70% left on it but I might as well upgrade now while the box is out
