Well, my clutch probably has less than 5000 miles on it. It's the engagement that's the problem.
The sad truth is that I really don't have 125 (Probably 150 after shipping) to spend on a part I wouldn't use for six months or more. The idea here was to get a crank, find a six bolt block, and start a full rebuild to be installed when my current motor lets go. That way, since I'd already have a block being rebuilt, it's a pretty small thing to just go ahead and put the stroker crank in there, and since I'd almost be guaranteed to be going a rebuild overbore, I'd probably need new pistons anyway. 500 dollar stroker pistons versus 300 dollar stockers ir pretty insignificant.
The only problem is that right now I really need to concentrate on getting this dumb clutch and shifter taken care of, and that's alot of 20 bucks here, 30 bucks there shit.
Scotty, the rods are 150mm. Stock strokes are 88mm (for the 4G63) and 100mm (for the stroker). That makes the stock ratio ~1.70, and the stroker 1.50.
