Well, the install is done. Everything works flawlessly. I didn't have my camera, nor was my Grandpa in the mood after 2 days of working on a cramped Honda for me to be taking pictures. I have a few from my cell phone and I'll go out and take pics of what I can.

This clutch/flywheel combo is AMAZING!

I know this is an old post. Hope somebody replys.
Did you have to remove the center crossbeam to lower the trans? Is it removeable?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, you need to drop the subframe to lower the trans. You have to outline it with a white marker and just remove the bolts and it drops right down.

isnt there a motor mount on the front and back? What about the radiator? Does the motor have to be supported at any point?

if you take of the serp belt and remove the 2 bolts holding your compressor to your engine you wont evacuate your system. just leave your comressor in the car and rip the engine out.
also in your first reply you talked about chatter. its not because the flywheel is lighter, flywheels are balanced out of the factory with the crankshaft attached, its all together when they balance it. so changing the flywheel means the crank is no longer balanced properly. if you want performance take the crank out the bottom of the engine bolt the flywheel to it and send it to an engine shop to balance the thing.
