Well, I got the car all put back together last night. I put fluids in and double checked everything. I went to start the car and it made about 1/2 revolution and then a hard metallic clunk. It stopped the rotation of the starter. My heart skipped a beat! I was able to turn it back and forth about 1/16 of a rotation before it would clunk and just stop dead.

After some investigation it turns out that the twin disk clutch is hitting my Taboo clutch fork. Not good!! Now I have to tear the tranny back out of the damn thing and either clearance the shift fork or put a stocker back in. Grrrrrrrrr.....

I can't work on it tonight, so hopefully I can get it going Tues. School starts on Wed., so that night is out. Third time having the tranny out is a charm, right?
