Just figured I would share my pain with all of you. Dropping an engine to change a POS clutch is not a fun or cheap thing to do...

yup, the way they make those relief cuts for the spring i guess makes them wear out for whatever reason, looks pretty much like jeffs spec disk looked when we pulled it last time he was up, and my old ACT street disk did the same.
although, in my case, i got 4 years, 50K+ out of mine. and i was WAY over the TQ rating for 3 years..lol -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

It was probably in the 3k to 5k range when it blew up. It was in the car when I bought it last year, so it's hard to tell.
