Yes I bought the one in Dallas. Just got it home today. No buyers remorse. I looked at the shifter linkage and found some slop in some rod end bearings where the linkage meets the tranny. Ordered the parts and should have them next week. All the clutch stuff looks copacetic. Thinking the pressure plate itself is stiff, but maybe there is another spring in there someplace.

Very simple to pull the tranny to look at your clutch. Only takes about 30 minutes. Hopefully you have ordered a service manual or one came with it. Makes life a lot easier! Good luck :D

Nicely bought. It looked fantastic in the photos; very very clean.
