Anybody used the Valeo "china" clutches? I purchased one today from Advance for $92 with new pilot bearing, disc, throw out bearing and pressure plate. I only use mine as a DD so I figured it was an OK deal.

I have one in my Firehawk, but replaced the disc with a McLeod unit. And many others have done the same in their f-bodys. I know i'm not talking about a festiva here. But i'm sure you'll get the hint here that i'm throwing out. That the cheap clutch is holding up in a far more powerfull car then a festy. Well that is with a different disc...96 Pontiac Firehawk # 48.. 383 stroker

Wow, I like this forum already. Y'all don't abuse me for using Advance parts in my cars. I belong to a BMW forum that it seems if it isn't BMW original parts or one of the approved aftermarket folks, you get scorned and abused. Same kinda applied to the tuner add on's. So far it seems y'all are just trying to save the Festy's and have some fun. That to me is a true funn bunch I would like to hang with and have some beers and dogs with!

Nah, I'm an old e28 junkie too. So it would be MyE28. But these little festy's seem like a cheaper brand of fun to me. I also belong to 4cycle which is a dirt kart racing forum. Hence my avatar name. I enjoy racing dirt oval on the weekends. Now I have a street legal kart...lol91 Festiva GL "Scrat"

I just sent the e28 i had to the crusher cause no one wanted it, not even for a parts car. I haven't been on mye28 for awhile, I kind of stopped looking when spastic started posting up his rusted out "hood ride".96 Pontiac Firehawk # 48.. 383 stroker

I still talk to the old heads once in awhile. I just saw the Festy meets and it made me think of the fun I had at the 5er Fests. Seeing the caravans and all those Festys together just brought back some memories.91 Festiva GL "Scrat"
