Well, I think I have it all sorted now.
I pulled the motor and box again and fitted a bright pink exeedy brand pressure plate.
I was thinking of using the standard clutch plate but in the end I decided to fit the 4-puck item as I wasn`t keen on pulling the motor and box again if the standard clutch plate was slippy.
I am quite impressed with the reults, the clutch "feel" is really nice, it is a little heavier than before and doesn`t seem to shudder, it still seems to be of a off/on nature (but not as bad as a lot of people would have you belive) when it is on "hold on to your hats" I had forgotten how fast this little rocket really is with "only" 15 psi boost.
I have yet to boost it up in fith gear and i`m not sure if I want to (I have only had my licence back for six months and the old girl didn`t like being locked away in the police impound yard).

I have read various ideas about running/bedding in puck style clutches, some say to "baby" it for 500km or so, others say the the complete oposite and just thrash the hell out of it from day dot?.

Whilst the old girl was off the road I also ditched the slapper/lift bars and fitted the rear springs from the old draggin` wag`n. These springs seem to be somewhat of a custom setup, the springs seem to biased with one being about 1/2-3/4 of an inch lower on one side than the other with different lowering blocks to get it level. Is this some sort of old school drag racing technique to keep the car level off the line?.

Cheers,

G O T H E D A T!!
