Thanks for the link, looks like the one I am going to go for.
$329 isn't bad, just see on the shipping this kit includes everything right?

Well despite the troubles with getting the clutch, the shop is letting me take the car down Monday morning for it to be done. Said they need it for 2 days which is fine.
So hopefully all will go well.

Picking the car up around 1:30 tomorrow so fingers crossed! Was at the shop to drop the new setup off, looked at the old clutch, 2 of the 4 springs were loose, and had chips in them, the diaphram was worn down about 1.5cm and the disc was pretty beat, it was the origional clutch with 86k so lasted a while!

Well got the car back today, seems to go into gears fine now, little notchy but just breaking the clutch in. The flywheel was re-surfaced as no warranty with out it. The grabing point seems to be very high though, not sure if there is an adjustment for these cars? Only annoying things is they didn't mark the splins for the steering rack so the steering wheel sits wonky now.
Overall goes into 1st and Reverse fine now! The break in is going to be hard though!

In the SVT (have never driven SE or whatever) you literally only have to push the pedal in 1/2 or so.

They aren't splines its probably hooked up 180 off or so. look at the steering column near the floor. You will see.

arg... after reading this thread... I now have similar shifting problems. Sometimes really hard to put in reverse and 1st, etc... I noticed I have about 3/4" to 1" of up/down play in my shifter too....
