Been super busy as of late but finally took some time while the weather was mild to get the bell housing painted up yesterday. It did manage to hit 57 degrees in the afternoon which was OK to paint, but no sooner than this morning and another snowstorm is upon us. I will try and get some more progress happening over the next few days.

Sorry guys...

I needed to build a new website for my company and that alone took hundreds of hours to build and complete. I had to get it right, and we finally launched it last Monday which was a heavy load off my shoulders. Now I can finally get back to working on the car.

If you haven't already stabbed the trans in, I'd give some thought to installing an adjustable fork ball. Allows you to optimize the clutch geometry and minimize the pedal effort. Makes a big difference with all of the different parts (aftermarket) to get it right.

Also, wht did you think of the Eastwood rust remover? Did it raise hell with the surrounding paint?

Tim,

Already have a brand new GM Ball and GM Fork in place. I've looked at the adjustable ones before, but I am happy with the stock setup.

DID NOT like the Eastwood rust treatment. Tried it in a couple of spots and all it seemed to do was encapsulate the area in what would look like a hardened clear gel. In my opinion...it kinda sucks!
