need help mmr900 and t45 tranny connction.

ok guys i got the mmr900 motor in the car guy that dropped the motor in for me after i put the motor together said he can't get the clutch to engage ......

i dropped the car off to aacom transmission shop

they are telling me the same thing that after removing the tranny and hooking it back up that the clutch is not engaging some thing is being pinched the fork on the tranny is not moving its very tigth.........

the orginal motor had alum 6-bolt flywheel and cenfg. clutch

if i am correct the t-45 uses a 10.5 flywheel and clutch.. rigth

my car is a 2000 gt


the mmr900 motor has 8-bolts so i got a stock flywheel and was going to use the same clutch

i still dont understand why they are having such a hard time with this

Focus pump is around 400-450rwhp.

Cobra tank+pumps is 500ish i believe. not sure about boost a pump numbers.

you could also buy another Focus pump and run dual Focus pumps with the Cobra tank, or buy dual GT pumps.

dont mess with the focus pumps. run twin GT supercar pumps. they are cheaper and better.

i'm running twin GT pumps, PPRV delete, 40 amp BAP, stage 1 driver module, wiring upgrade,CPR rails and 60# injectors. i'm seeing mid 80% DC with my setup

stock gt tank and sender should not be used for forced induction. cobra tank and gt pumps can support over 600+ rwhp.
