To my dismay, the input shaft seal on my relatively fresh transmission rebuild took a dump. The rebuilder (not saying who, but it was one of the three main DSM tranny shops) is taking it back under warranty to diagnose what caused the seal to fail and get me back in running condition.
My dilemma is this – my clutch is soaked. The tranny and clutch have 1200 miles on them. It’s a CFDF and I’ve been really happy with it so far and don’t want to switch to a different clutch and centerforce doesn’t sell the disk by itself. The way I see it, I have a few choices:
1. Install a new CFDF assembly. Two big downsides – cost and the 500 mile break-in at no boost (that’s 6 months worth of driving for me).
2. Install an ACT street disk using the CFDF PP – I don’t know how well this works. Anyone tried it?
3. Risk cleaning the CFDF disk and reinstalling it – I don’t think this is a good idea unless someone knows of a foolproof way to do this
I’m looking for advice, experience, and any what would you do if it was yours comments.
