I guess I spoke too soon in another thread, I said it wasnt that tough to do a V8 conversion. I keep running into little snags here and there. Of course the leaking brake lines have nothing to do with the V8, its a snag all in all. The little snag I am having now I am hoping someone here can help me with. I pulled the car out of the garage today and put it in the driveway since it is such a beautiful warm sunny day. Trouble is now, I get really bad chatter from the clutch when I try to put it in gear. I have it adjusted all the way to the end of the threads and it still chatters, did I forget something? Someone has to have encountered this before. Help a guy out, I really want to drive this thing.
