Wow. Talk about dynosaurs? I certainly qualify but I don't eat raw meat anymore. You know? The doc's and all that jazz?
I remember the discussion vaguely BUT I find zero Marcel difficult to believe that would work as a "streetable" solution?
It isn't like the Pantera was the first to use the ZF. The issue is that there just isn't enough room for the throwout bearing in the bell house. I do think that someone goofed there.
My "clutch expert" retired. Sits and watches reruns of Jeopardy all day. If you think I get pissy, you ain't seen nutin' when you talk to this guy? Actually I am a reflection of my NY socialization. The race teams here when I was a teeny bopper were just plain nasty. I kept some of the wrenches they threw at me. Good stuff! Screw them. Catch me if you can to get 'em back!
If I could, I would ask him if the amount of Marcel varies or is it a standard dimension. They were always playing with the clutch in their Pro Stock Camaro.
If you research Marcel, I don't think there will be any mention of the amount built into the disc? That may be somewhat of a trade secret so to speak?
Maybe someone here can find something on that. There is nothing wrong with a forum being highly educated.
