Cam is on its way. Also after talking to Big G about timing sets he talked me into getting a double row one. So I ordered one from Mace as well as a machined oil pump cover.

hmmmm?

so no wear as such but this thing was slipping something shocking by the end. there was a lot of oil in the bell housing. But the surfaces on the clutch looked and felt dry.

Some bits ripped from the disk. Wonder what caused that? The clutch was super grabby at times.

Wow, thats toast...

Doesnt look like the oil got to the friction material, shitty cable? Just because your foot is off the pedal doesnt mean your clutch has fully engaged, happens with a worn cable. Heat from one slip usually ruins the clamping rate of the clutch...

Bring the flywheel with you next time and ill grind it up for you.
According to chemistry, alcohol is a solution...

I'd just drop all the running gear in the new one, don't bother building the new motor
