Thanks. I forgot to mention that I've had the car 10 years with the original clutch and all the mods were put on around 4 years ago. Before the mods all was fine but 2 years ago I started to have chatter so I replaced the original clutch and pressure plate. At that time I didn't see the seal leaking but still had the chatter even after changing the clutch. For the past 2 years I haven't changed the clutch again cause I work from home so the chatter isn't a big bother, but if I want to go to the track which is a ways away, the chatter will act up right on cue in the sportsman's lanes. I've tried to let out the clutch and work the gas pedal many different ways. Th whole car shakes when I let out the clutch slowly and revup the gas. The only way it won't chatter is if I launch from light to light which has been great practice but guys in mini vans fly by thinking they're beating me cause I'll launch at almost half throttle then let off the throttle to engage in normal driving. Also having short gears with a loud exhaust doesn't help. lol. Oh well, I get a kick out of it. Those guys lol. Anyway, sorry for babbling. I'm going to start this week and look for that seal tool and pilot bearing puller. Oh what about the pressure plate? Should I replace that? Thank you so much.
