Dang, looks like a crack team there. Sorry I missed out on it all.

BTW, hopefully you guys were able to get the clutch alignment tool. Sorry for the mix-up if you weren't.

Lastly, you guys are magicians for getting that transmission out with the car that low. When I did mine I had my 'truck' jackstands maxed out at almost 24".

Did y'all get everything finished already?

Yeah we got it all together, Dustin(SGTB) had a Clutch alignment tool that we were able to borrow as well. No worries about the mix up everything came through in the end. I really want to thank everyone for their part in getting this project to come together, Kirk, Brett, Heath, Steve and I did alot of bickering and cussing at each other but we all still laughed and worked through it all and finally got the clutch on and the transmission in. We were able to get the tranny out by taking the front tire off and slowly moving the tranny out that way lol. It worked in the end but thanks to everyone help borrowing tools...Kev I'm very sorry about the TQ wrench

I think it was a great incentive. Just as the nights progressed, work productivity went down slightly....
