We pulled seats, center console, removed trans and shaft, removed right side headers, pipes and muffler, unbolted left side header & muffler, raised rear of engine and loosened Kirkham motor mounts, drained cooling system and removed coolant pipes to raise engine and were able to cock the bell housing enough to reach behind and unbolt clutch and flywheel. At my advanced age I’m not smart enough to post photos. I dropped Mcleod flywheel of at a friends machine shop for a new Ring Gear install. New gear coming from McLeod and shop will either use (3) clips cut off damaged
Ring Gear or make new ones to be welded to gear and attached to flywheel. David Kirkham thought we could slide bell housing out into the cockpit but we didn’t want to remove heater and controls if not necessary. I left out throttle linkage, halon lines and some other items. Thanks for everyone’s past advice. 393 will be back on the road shortly. Jerry
