Just wondering if it was like really severe, at the dealership, I have had TT customers break the pressure plate into 4 peices and the plate surface was glazed blue to a crisp, and they wonder why it wasnt covered under warranty

Spec gave me my money back after Gotham was so nice to send them the bill of sale and date and I sent Spec the parts within a week, basically in order for it to look like it did I would have had to rode that bitch around with the clutch pedal depressed for like a week. It literally looked just burnt to hell and back.

I run a unsprung ACT 6 puck which is overkill but I like the fact that almost everyone can't drive it The ****** doesn't slip, that's all I care about...

lol, I went with a Mcleod RevLok 2 sintered iron clutch which is the same one Ray used in his drag car and per his recommendation. I believe when I talked to them last year, they had just enough materials to make 4 more, because they build to order and were discontinued after that

If you believe the Mythbusters, that doesn't work. And neither did the bullet in the gas tank.

O did they disprove that? I had a chemical engineer told me that would work years ago.

Sorry to get off this rambeling topic. I am in the market for new plugs and wires. I don't wanna spend my life's savings =) , but I do want some good parts. I have a stock FC3C (NA) 1990. What I need is brand names and if possible part numbers. Also local stores where I can get them. Thanks!

Thanks!
