[MattAvino]

A new what? Pilot bearing?
I'm not very good at clutch/flywheel stuff.

[glucklich21]

Um yeah you need a new one.

[MattAvino]

^anyone?

[MattAvino]

Sup, ladies.
well, motor dropped from the 88 and on the stand.
Chopped the bottom portion of the core support off. Can easily be re welded if someone wants my core support.







Also, I found these dried out bearing balls and bracket sitting loosely in the crank hole. Toasted pilot bearing?

I am really enjoying your build!! wish I could do the same but I was able to pick up a car that didnt need so much attention. What are your plans for the interior?

thanks. I wish I had been able to pick up a car that didn't need so much attention. The 87 bill be receiving the black 88 sport interior. The grey carpet from the 88 will be died black, i will be making a custom black suede headliner.
Also, a few odds and ends will be wrapped with a maroon leather that I removed from an old recliner.
