84 K20 "Ethel" Not an Sbc/NV4500/241C

[sreidmx]

Drove Ethel to work today, definitely quieter in 5th than it used to be, still noisy in 1-2 but goes down the road smooth and with no drama. Stupid clutch is jittery, that is super annoying and I hope it goes away..
otherwise I am happy, needs a little louder exhaust so I don’t feel like I am in a delivery truck.

Glad to hear it's back on the road

I thought that came with the territory when driving a 3-pedal truck.

Clutch is jittery like a throw out bearing?

No I think there is some surface imperfections on the flywheel.

Burnouts will fix that...

What brand bearing did you use? Have seen the local auto parts store one's make noise.

Half the problems I had was user error, crappy quality part or was broken before I got it.

6000rpm clutch drops will smooth it out.
