Hey all, its been awhile since I've had time to work on my car, but this weekend I decided that it needed finished:D
I finished putting the motor back together, then added my new Fidanza aluminum flywheel with some new ARP bolts.
Unfortunately, when I went to mount the clutch and pressure plate, the clutch disc does not come in contact with the flywheel, but instead hits the heads of the bolts????
Anyone know what is going on here as I've never seen this happen before.
I know that I have the correct flywheel, clutch kit, and bolts because I double checked, so this is blowing my mind.
Can we not use the ARP bolts on the 3.0? Do the heads stick out too far??
Thanks for any info on this problem, I miss my car and am currently stuck with a wimpy 1.9L Escort. Yeeecchhh......It is a 5-speed, but it still won't even squeak the tires - Even if I dump the clutch.......
Also, I was wondering - Are both shifter cables identical??
Much Thanks
