Thanks very, very much.got some fresh piccies too...I will be at work for about 3 hours Friday and then down to QR to check out the racing and I will be there Sat and Sunday so I will not be back on here till Sunday night. The damage doesn't look too bad and will be easily fixed, I haven't got a crystal ball but I should be able to pick up your bits and return it rebuilt with my steel flywheel and clutch kit, new alloy csc, new braided lines, your T56 rebuilt and blueprinted for under $4000. regards Mal Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/35891-clutch-problems/page/5/#findComment-556676 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MalWell we got your T56 stripped today and it will not be a problem to rebuild, all will be fine and quite reasonably priced. It will be ready to go back to you by Friday, I will give a report as soon as I can.

Exactly what were you doing when it let go.Do you think it was the clutch failure that took out the bellhousing or a bellhousing failure that took out the clutch.
