Hey guys ive got a 2000 Gt convertable, the clutch recently started to slip so i decided to throw a new one in. This being my fisrt time messing with anything major under the car im havin some issues. I've got the new clutch disk and pressure plate installed and lined up but im having some major issues getting the tranny back up. Any recomendations? It's killin me havin the stang off the road for the past few days. :(

But only if I let Kenne scream at ya. LOL
Sorry bout that guys. I've been messing with it all day its just every tight and the metal bracket that holds the clips for the O2 sensors was getting in the way. Thought I didnt have the clutch plate dead on but im pretty sure ill get it in now.
But I did buy some Lincon Mark heads complete with timing assembly upper and lower intake throttlebody and and other things for 350 tho. Think of putting the 4v heads on her soon. I know this will be a big job but I picked up the parts real cheap so i figured it was something to look into and it opens the doors to alot as far as boost. Any ideas?
You need to use a clutch alignment tool for the clutch disk...then tighten down your pressure plate to the flywheel. If you don't do that, you won't be able to get the tranny lined up.

Yeah i have the pressure plate torqued to 12 pounds and It is aligned, figures my problem was the bracket that holds the 02 sensor plugs ended up wedged between the tranny and block in a spot i couldnt see it. Things are all sorted out now thanks thoo!

lol yeah is it nessecary to have up there? because if not im just going to take it off and let the sensor plugs hang, they are disabled anyways seeing as i have no cats lol
that bracket is for your upstream 02's....if you somehow disabled those you're going to be sorry. LOL
You can remove the bracket though.
