Thread: I need an expert's opinion

    Default I need an expert's opinion

    well I am having some concerns with my Spec stage 1 clutch. I called spec, and they suggested that I needed to change the bearing with a new one. I know chattering is normal, but I am not sure if mine is worse than the "normal". So I wanted to see, if someone in Northern VA/DC metro area with a spec clutch, is willing to meet with me for 2 min so I can hear how his clutch chatters...and maybe he can hear mine, so I can get a better idea.
    The thing is that I really dont feel like taking that tranny out again(

    anyone?

    I've never heard one in a Contour, but I've heard a Spec clutch in a Mustang and a Tbird SC, and neither of them made noise...?

    I had a Spec Stage 1 in my old 3L, and have heard several SVTs with various combos with chatter. I'd be happy to meet up with you. Shoot me a PM.

    I'm in Gainesville, and have a Stage III Spec on my turbo. Chatter is minimal. I can take a look if you'd like. PM me.

    My stage II loved to chatter, it had a lightened SPEC flywheel in it too. Lots of guys have had chatter with them...
