Broke My Stang tonight . . . again

[damacman]

Installed a Boost Cooler on it last night -- results on N/A are pretty amazing as we have 10% or so humidity out here. Man it sure ran hard and it was torturing the tires on the 1-2 and kicking the car out on the 2-3. Thought I smelled the clutch a little on the last run, but it seemed fine so I thought nothing of it. Took it to Firebird tonight and was unable to get it into third on the first or second run -- just thought it was one of those nights. On the third run, the clutch went on the 2-3 shift.

I guess I know what I'll be doing on Sunday. Do I have to drop the tranny to replace the clutch or can it be done without doing that?

Don't feel bad, I blew my tranny.

Tranny's gotta come down.

 

[stangman]

tranny has to come down for sure



& is that one of those snows boost cooler things???? if so do you have any dyno, or track numbers from it showing +/- in performance????? i've been looking at those things in catalogs & wondering if they actually worked for a long time

 

[damacman]

Yes it is the Snow Performance Boost Cooler. No numbers to report yet, remember I put it on two nights ago, and took out the clutch last night.

Put a McLeod Series 800 Clutch in today along with the Steeda adjustable clutch / quadrant, assy. Sure glad I didn't have long tubes on it . . . all I had to do was pull the collectors off of the Bassani mid-lengths and we were able to get the transmission out. Not a fun job. Hopefully, this clutch will last a GOOD LONG time. Kinda' sucks that I have to drive 450 - 500 miles on it before I can get on it.
