this is what we saw when the tranny was pulled out.
It appears somehow, the dust boot ripped... I have been having major 1-2 grind issues, and suspected maybe the clutch was not fully disengaging. Perhaps the slave cylinder was getting "sticky" from crap getting inside the boot area? No telling.
I generally don't have any issues MOST of the time shifting into 2nd on the street. My main grind issues were launching at the track.. some reason I would get grind everytime.. sometimes worse than others.
Put the Mcleod in today with the flywheel and 07-09 Slave cylinder.. which i should have taken a picture of them side by side but forgot.. the 07-09 it "taller" and appears to have alot more throw to it.. but the Mcleod is "shallower", so I can see the need for the 07-09 unit.
I won't have to break in the the clutch(another story altogether), and have done a few street 1-2 shift... zero grind so far. Normal driving seems to shift a little better too... well... other than right after leaving the shop... had the typical clutch line bleeding issues.. different grab points etc.. should get all the air out of the system in the next day or so.
I will update when I make it to the track and get a good launch and 1-2 shift in. Hopefully my issues are fixed.
