I've only had the car out and about a dozen times over the last month or two. Just recently, three things...
Bought the car in January. We don't thaw real well here until May. Not much time to devote to project. After several times on the road, the followiong was relayed.
1. Much slippage in 1st gear to get the car to move. (Close ratio 4-speed trans) & I think ± 4:56 rear gears.
2. Next...when shifting 2-3-4, the trans (at times) will disengage and free-wheel until the revs settle down abit. (Note: no radical use. Just regular traffic). 3....descent down hill areas, has transmission popping out of gear.
Question.
I would appreciate your opinions on the whole clutch package. Pressure plates, clutch, throw-out bearings etc. Initially siding on "stock" but would like to have aggressive assembly anyways. Ideas re: overkill also welcome.
Please provide input.
Thanks,
RCE
