Italso depends on the clutch you used. Many clutches are soft, even nice aftermarket ones. Put the car in first gear (car off!!!!)......push the clutch in, and then pull all the way up with your hand. Do this a few times just to make sure, and then it's in adjustment. We do this at work all the time too, soi I'm not trying to fuck with you like many people think when I tell them this. Also, it iis a self adjusting clutch, but doesn't self adjust for shit.

mike,
yeah i got you cell #.
i dont have my car yet but i still go to the races in L.B. to watch...fuckin hot as hell(cops)
people still don't seem to care.if you come down here to race,you have to set up the race at the mobile,do your run then leave and come back in 3-5 minutes..just to be safe.i don't know about the intake hurting anything..i just opened up the runners a bit..i basically just ported it to the gasket size...no harm there...thats up to you man.
you don't have to get it done..but i'll help you if you wanna do that.one thing though,we'll need a shopvac to suck up the shit outta you lower.i might be able to find one.heres my # (562)427-3207
"Justin" R. if your comming down to race or whatever.
