Default Clutch job assistance in Oxnard

Hello hello. I've been doing meticulous research for a complete clutch replacement with a ACT HD PP + OEM everything else. Writing out my own instructions from what I have read and watched through videos. But mostly referring back to the manual. I have the whole doc here (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...it?usp=sharing)

BUT, with my luck I always strip a bolt or something. I got lucky with the valve job and only broke off the head off the TDC sensor bolt and had to scavenge it out of the valve cover.

I have access to a lift at an Auto Hobby Shop so it'll make life easier. If anyone is available on a weekend (1/26 and on) to show/help me not make any mistakes, I'd be oh so grateful I want to learn to do this myself, but I only have one weekend to do this job and the S is my daily (**** me right).

Cheers,

Mike

Because $$$. Maybe soon but for now the ap1 one is just fine. I revv match well with it. Hopefully with the ACT PP I'll be able to get better downshifts

I wouldn't go lighter than 11lb. Which one are you looking at?
