                Was able to drive to the gas station but man having big tires and the bp the stock festy clutch isn't enough and won't transfer the power to the wheels but still more balls then the old motor. I hurd that geo swift clutch works with a little bit of grinding but what about going to like a stage 2 clutch for a festy tranny, I know nothing about the clutches so what should I buy that's cheepish like 150$ range

                      If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                          since there were no bolts @ the adapter to hub I feel pretty safe in assuming it was a WIP pic. I'll keep all other comments to myself concerning your second question.

                            No there is 2 just was test fitting it! But yep I drove it today and drove from kc to nebraska but the clutch quit working and won't Enguage gears now but it feels like the clutch is still there but I can drive it if I shift with out the clutch... so its parked now untill I get it fixed but it had balls and moved great stiff suspepnshion and just a decent ride on the interstate but turring is a little stiff but works good and drives stright down tthe road so now I got to get a different clutch is my guess that can take the extra hp from the motor and huge wheels cuz 5 gear doesn't have enough torque to accelarate with the wheels but 4th does!

                              I hope you have matching wheels and tires by now. If not I'd probably work on getting all the rubber the same size!
