How much of a pain was it to pull the tranny? I may need a new clutch soon..
it's not too bad, especially if you're strong, clearances are the biggest PITA for the top bolts, try to do the starter bolts first as they are usually the ones that give me the hardest time.
My technique is bear-hugging the bastard from under the car and having a friend using a pry bar to it, once the top bastard bolts are out it's ~10min to popping off.
My exhaust is on vbands so its pretty quick. A clutch can be done in under 2 hours if nothing goes wrong. We had a hell of a time getting the pilot bearing to cooperate so it took a couple hours to re-install. I don't have the terminal bolts for the e36 starter so i have not fired it up yet to see how it feels. Just received my ecu from whodwho so she'll be ready real soon. I'll be removing the driveshaft to install a rebuilt on first though.

So today i got my TCD schtuff. I was happy and disappointed at the same time. Being TCD i expected great quality. What i got was something that looked like it was take your kid to work day and they let some 10 year old weld it together. Perhaps it was a second quality rejected part that someone took and sold anyway. I don't know what the back story as i bought it off someone else. For all I know its a TCD knock off. Spent a couple hours grinding off ceramic coating and re welding everything. I suck at welding but i did a better job.
