CLUTCH, FLYWHEEL, FLYWHEEL SHIELD

6.1 mandatory on all V-8 cars with a clutch. Flywheel shield
cannot be modified for clutch adjustment and/or cooling holes.


4 and 6 cylinders don't need a flywheel shield. They do need an approved clutch and flywheel.

Sure, if it came that way.
I can't imagine anyone would want to retro-fit one.
Almost sure you CAN'T use a hydraulic TOB..
And no, you can't put a line lock in the hyd. line, and hook it to a button ;-)

Had to? Why, exactly?

Don't think you have to,just easier to do mechanical with bellhousing and transmission they are using.

I agree with you, buddy.
The 86 Cimarron was hydraulic, and I couldn't stand it.
It turned out that first year Cavalier (also a J car) had a cable clutch, so we just ordered all the parts new from a Chevy dealer..Of course they were only four years old then.
We're going to see if Ford has a better idea. ;-)
