ya, but when youre used to having the right tools, and working in a shop, doing it any other way is obnoxious lol
with a lift and trans jack, you can do a clutch in 2 hours, by yourself

That's too bad.

I'd be interested in the duckbill wing if you are, in fact, parting out.

Sad to see this thing being parted out. I myself have a Vert 91 and it's a love hate relationship. I do hope to buy some things off Vivian and place it into "Nightmare" ( my cars name since its been a nightmare to work on) when I get some extra cash.

im fairly sure its even bigger, pure size wise, to the ron davis radiator, which is huge as well. its thicker, where the swoosh is just massive all around
someone needs to buy it. hell of a good deal, cheaper than a koyo, and will provide better cooling with the proper shroud and efan setup
