Got a present from MarlinCrawler today..... Its a 1200 lb pressure plate, ceramic clutch, throwout bearing and pilot bearing. Thanks guys...... I'm not sure if the ceramic clutch is the right application for my driving style but we will see. Hopefully its just sticky enough to hook up and yet with the 1200 lb pressure plate weak enough to let me slip it when I need to.

I didn't get much done tonight since life got in the way.... (Selling the 2wd first gen xtra cab, balancing the check book, moving money around in the banks, doing the bills, going shopping, etc...) but what I did work on was getting the intake side of the head thoroughly cleaned.... Check out the top surface of the intake ports.

Now the bottom surface of the intake ports. that crap was hard to get off. but I did it.

And now the intake side is nice and pretty...incuding around the injectors!
