Re: Oct. 7th
It's mostly my fault, I should've put a throttle stop and adjust it perfectly. I just moved my seat back and quit pushing the clutch to the floor like always, apparently that was still too much. There's also some talk that the stock Mitsu TOB doesn't work well with the twin disk. No money to fix it and no time either.

Re: Oct. 7th
So what are the rest of the dyno guys expecting to put down for power? Maybe I'll now have a chance to take top honors

Re: Oct. 7th
Man, I hope that isn't what it wrong with my clutch too! I have mine adjusted so engagement is pretty low in the pedal travel so it shouldn't be moving too far, hopefully! The weather is sucking ass so I don't know if I will be able to get at it before the dyno day.

Wait til you get the death rattle and it barely goes into gear. There's a few really good posts about it on NABR that I haven't seen any mention of before.

Re: Oct. 7th
Hmmm.... it had a hell of a vibration going on. That is why I thought the flywheel was loose again. It would be a shame to kill a shep tranny like that!

Re: Oct. 7th
Which part of the hub did it eat? My TOB seems a bit looser on the stub, but might be me getting paranoid.
Mine did end up being just the flywheel bolts loosening up again. Whew! I dunked them in loc-tite and torqued them down good. If they loosen up again I am taking the impact to them.
