Ed;
In addition to all those other parts everyone else mentioned, was the
throwout shaft bushings covered? Somtimes they disentingrate, since the
stock ones are plastic. Josh has alumina ones. How about the front motor
mount? It's usually torn, or just about done, and almost off when you do the
clutch. I just reinforce my stock one with a new 9 in grade 8 hardware store
bolt with some very large washers to remove all but 1/8 in of slack in the
mount. My stock one had almost 1/2 in movement. Please get the flywheel cut,
even if you don't think it needs it. I did my clutch twice 'cause of that
one. BTDT. The oil pan seal and the rod bearings are not that hard to do
separately, but since you're down there, and the car's down, if you got the
time....
