Justin when you get it completely out let me know. I can come look at it for you,also I can get you a NEW clutch at a good price. I dont use rebuilds unless the friction shop does them, I have had to change too many under warranty, meaning I ate the labor the second time. . Stick with the old truck, your grandpa wore out the clutch not you. Is the challenger hot rodded???
I'll let you know then . Hopefully it is just the clutch....but like others have said I should have been able to make it home without the clutch. It did turn over in gear with the clutch peddle to the floor...just not enough oomph to start it up (crank.......crank.....................crank..........nothing).
I dont remember talking about the challenger in this thread ......but yes it is. Its a 1970 Dodge Challenger SE (with electric windows, and locks, A/C all that sort of plush stuff for the time), 383 2bbl, 727 torqueflite column shift tranny. He switched the column shifter to the slapstick style shifter (in between the seats). Edelbrock intake manifold with carter 670cfm 4bbl. Had a cam in it, dont know what kind. He worked in a machine shop so he went through the heads.....had it bored to put in 440 pistons to make it a 396 cubic inchs. Rotating assembly balanced and everything. Main web girdle. Thats all that coming to me right now. So he knows what its like to want to "hot rod" something.
