Well Hell I had several things that I was thinking about doing tso I thought that I would right them all down right now while I had it in my lil head. :baseball_w00t: ok I have the mods that are listed in my sig I just got the specific's from the guuy that built the engine today. I am wanting to get diffrent pipes I am not sure wich one's to get with my set up But I also want you to keep in mind that I am going to be putting on 35mm carbs and getting a full drag porting also wanting to make it a 4mm stroker with long rods a lil later as well and I want a pipe that will work well with what I have now and well with what I am going to do.

 

Ok the other question I have is that I am Going to take off the clutch cover so i can adjust the clutch mechanism because I dont think that my clutch is not fully disengaging. The clymers manuel say's that I have to drain the coolant b4 I take it off :baseball_wibble:. Do I really have to do that because it sounds like an aweful lot of work to do all that just to change the tranny oil and adjust the clutch mechanism. Please let me know I will be doing it tomarrow evening and would like some advise. I am probably going to be a by the book (clymer's) guy just because I have never worked on wheeler's b4 ( i had a 4 poke and took it to the stealership if anything was wrong with it) but i want to say hey i built that or i fixed that and do something with my own to hands,if ya know what i mean. I mean I sell cars and also help run an internet business called ecarmail.com so I like to get my hands dirty when i get home anyway thnks for the replies guy's and gal's.

Yes you have to drain the coolant because the water pump is built

into the clutch cover. It is an easy task so dont sweat it.

You may need a new clutch cover gasket depending on the shape

of your old one.

draining the coolant is a must...........I have a billet EZ-Drain........and it still doesnt get all the coolant out!..............also a new gasket would be nice :thumb:

Well that blow's one more question do I have to take off the front grill like the clymers says or can i just take out the bolts to drain it and take off the watter line that it say's to undo.

ez way to drain the collant is pull the large line that connect to the clutch cover. once its all drained out blow back through that hose or the top of the radiator if you can get to it and push the remaining fluids out. its not hard youll see once you do it

You will have to take the grill off, so you can refill it when you are done.

 

Now I have been havign the saem problem with my clutch not disengaging. When you adjust it, rather than lining up the arrows, tighthen the screw till you feel it get tight, then back it off a little. You will get better pull that way. I think my problme is my basket is grooved up, but doing hwta i said seems to have taken care of it.
