Taxman's 07 GT Convertible build thread

[Taxman]

Clutch and flywheel are here. Time to yank this Exedy Mach 500 and put it on the market. I'm hoping somebody will want a good deal on a budget clutch.

Were you having slippage issues?

 

[Mike K]

Yeah what didn't you like about it?

 

[Taxman]

No slippage at all. It holds all my power no problem. I just don't like the pedal pressure and point of engagement.

Good E.t Jaye! I'm Sure There's Much More In It Though, Gl Buddy.

 

[Timmbo]

Yeah I have the Mach 500 and it is stiffer than stock for sure. You going with the Mcleod RST or RXT? I guess I will find out within the next few months if my 500 will hold up to a twin turbo or 3.4L Whipple lol. Doubt it. The 6spd Magnum XL kit with a Mcleod RXT is definitely in my future though.

 

[Taxman]

I went with the RST for budget reasons. It should hold up well to my power goals and how I drive my car.

I had a Mach 400 you'll be fine

Haven't done anything new yet. With the Oct 15th deadline approaching, I've been pretty busy. I'm just adding this video moostang shot this weekend at the track so it'd be in my build thread.

[bakerjd]
