Hey Min, I have a question for ya...
You had told me that your crank evac draws a lot of oil into your exhaust...
Do you think it would reduce the oil consumption if a restrictor was put in it? Kind of the same way I use a pop rivet for my turbo oil feed restrictor...

I'm shooting for like 260whp...whatever the RX8 425cc injectors will max out at, that's what I'm going for. Hence, 5 speed should be suffice.

Have you tried having someone push the clutch pedal while you work the trans around? It can push the throwout bearing against the clutch and help separate the engine from the trans.

Sounds like to managed to bend an input shaft somehow. I do not see any other reason why it would not want to come out. It went in fine and we took the old 6 speed in and out about 5 times to do fit checks so it should just come out. You can get a giant pry bar from homedepot. I forget what it is called but it is just a long steel bar or get a big crow bar.

---- that's a good idea. Usually the slave is like one of the first things I remove. Maybe I'll leave it on next time I do a tranny until it's ready to go.

And then you'll either jam your transmission on even more or spill clutch fluid all over the floor. Sounds like fun.

My RC440s were fine to 290rwhp in my '92 5speed with 3.90, somewhere around 84 duty at 7400rpm and 14psi. I run more static pressure obviously, like 60psi or so.
