Dude, I feel for ya, it totally sucks. I had my gears put in by a Ford mechanic who's a friend of mine, and when I was on my way to pick the car up, all excited like, he calls and ask if I have had trouble with the clutch slipping. So I've had to wait since last Oct. 5 to drive this thing after I finnaly got time to put a clutch in. Now I'm still going through breakin on the new clutch. I want to crush the gas pedal so bad, it's fuggin' killing me!
