if it was a tranny mount I think it would vibrate more.... and it would pop out... few other possiblities of the grinding could be a weak spring or a Busted Insert or teeth someware or the forkcould be worn....

tranny mount is remotly possible, but on a manual is not really common and actual shifting would be harder

for sure replace the flywheel, not a big fan of refurbished things, Check some of the performance places like tybryne and ls1speed and check out what they have for man. trans's

I wouldn't put the stock clutch back in-not really worth all that time and money only to have the stock one-

Stay away from SLP- I had one and it sucked-

CenterForce Dual Friction- Friends of mine had good luck with it

If you plan on makin serious power in the hear future look at SPEC clutches- I have heard good things about them.

Dependin on how bad your flywheel is, I don't think resurfacing is so bad. But it depends on your money at the time. If you want performance all around go with a lighter flywheel. If you are going to be drag racin quite a bit, the stock one is actually a little better for you.

Hope that helps-

Spec definatly makes AWESOME clutches, and not really that expensive, I had a Spec stage 2 in my Cobra and that thing hooked and jacked you back into your seat HARD!!!

I would definatly go with a Spec clutch, but dont go above a stage 2... unless you want your left leg to be strong as hell

get the flywheel turned, you dont have to get a new one, it would be nice, but it sounds like you are a little short on money to be dropping a grand into clutch, PP, and flywheel...
