So it's out . I believe part of it may be my fault . I think I messed the adjustment up from the get go on this one .

The chatter never really went away either which led to me to slip it real good to stop the chatter . I think that glazed the pucks over as well as the finish on the flywheel wasn't right . I think I'm just gonna order a new flywheel . Oh well expensive lesson to learn .

February . The heat I attribute to me over slipping it to try and stop the chatter. I had never experienced this with any other clutch I've ever had . Hell the used centerforce pressure plate with a new disc never did it when I first put the Tremec in with the new motor . We even dynoed it with that setup etc .

Lesson learned here . I had the adjustment too tight I think too .

Started at 11:30 . 230 am now . Just needs mid pipe and fluid put back in . Calling it a night . Not too bad time wise considering I spent a half hour maybe a little less fighting with putting the new dowels in the new flywheel . Pedal feels amazing just on a quick push or two . You'd almost think it was hydraulic .

Were out and about .... Dare I say the pedal almost feels too light ?

It will just take some getting used to I guess

Went to street wars import vs domestic yesterday. I had planned on racing this event but didn't want to hurt the brand new clutch . Still breaking it in .

On the way home I decide to get on the car a little . I'm thinking wtf it's like the clutch is slipping . Then I realize rpms aren't shooting up there just holding around 4K rpm and then once it pushes past the car begins to just break up . Look at the afr during this and sure enough it goes to richen up and once it goes into boost the pump can't keep up and it starts to go lean .

Pump got so loud i felt it surge through my feet . I'm gonna pull it today or tomorrow and have it sent out to be rebuilt . Install the controller and hopefully no more issues . It was a blessing in disguise I didn't try and race the car yesterday.

Damnnnnn that tank was full . Well I know why my gauge doesn't work .... The fuel must have sloshed so bad that it ripped the pump and bracket aeromotive gives you out of the supplied clips and was laying in the tank .

Also the vent tube was crushed to the body which I am sure didn't help anything .

So pump goes out tomorrow to get rebuilt . Ordered a new sending unit and vent grommet . Gonna re do the wiring for the controller install . And that should fix it

Now, see Jeff. That flywheel may have caused more problems in your fuel delivery system than the pump itself.

I say reinstall it without that and see if the pump works smoother.

Damn that pump looks nice I don't care if it's broke or not lol
