Tech Session at Kirby's
or
How a new clutch mysteriously appeared in Bill Vasser's car!


From Bill:

Well, I no longer have a custom ground flywheel that was slightly coned and wavy, for that “special effect”.
I want to thank the club, especially a special thanks to our lead mechanic and host, Kirby, for replacing my clutch.  Thanks to Gray, Fred, Tom, Cosmo, Brian (and the cookies), Orville, Dan and whoever I forgot, for all the effort put into working to pull the transaxle and replacing the clutch.
The car shifts better than I can remember over the last 25 years I have had it.  No problem shifting into second, which always made for a slow deliberate effort. Now I can put down the power without concern.
 
Here are some pictures of the day.
Thanks again for everyone's effort in this heat.
Bill
 
No, I think we should just take it all apart.
