We have run stiff clutches in cable B series cars for 7+ years now and never had a problem. Just a random stupid question but is the trans completely flush with the block? Have you tried shimming the flywheel? What steps are you going through when you install the clutch and TOB?
The tranny is flush with the block. M&J said there is no reason to shim the flywheel since it has only been re-done once with .007 taken off. I did get a .50 shim, however I don't really want to use it.What steps when I install my cluch? Brake cleaner all the parts, torque down everying thing in the correct pattern. Is there somthing special I should be doing? lol

How much free play is there in the lever arm before you feel the throwout bearing touch the pressure plate?

I've got an idea Bryce. Bring it to a shop and let them tackle it. I'm not sure if Ry is willing to do it. If not, see what Tufte says. It will save alot of heartache thats for sure. Sure it will cost a few bucks but in the end, it will be done and you wont end up killing any puppies over it.I've got him covered on the "professional" for beer thing...but 2 weeks is a long time.

Have you tried shimming the arm?
-
How would I go about doing that? I don't quite understand how that would help. I mean it was pulling it as far as possable, so far that my clutch pedal broke of. lol
Someone on H-T thinks that it is the Thurst bearing, and the crank moved over a bit. What is your take on that possablilty Nick?
-
You can check the thrust bearing by putting a pry bar behind the crank pully and prying out. If that doesn't work try it behind the flywheel going the other way and see if it moves.
-
what you are checking is crankshaft end play and there should be literally none (actually there is to be some but without a dial indicator to messure to the exact .0001", you wont know the right amount. What he is expecting you to see is any play, which would require new main bearings, or a rebuild.

The crx is fixed and back on the street!:icon_thumleft:
The pedal assembly turned out to be the problem. It kept bending from my Exedy cable cutch untill it broke. Then when I got it back together my starter went out, so I got a new starter in it.
It works great!
Thanks for the help, and support guys.
