I have a f22a6 motor and I'm lookin to put a stage 1 clutch in it . What would be a good clutch to buy at a decent price and from where?

 

i believe ACT has a real nice clutch and flywheel package for a stage1. It should also include new throw out bearings. And i thought i saw them going for around $175. I don't remember where i saw it last but i would think a good place to start looking for stuff like that would be ebay.

 

Thanks ima lookin into that. How hard is it to install.

 

well if your a pretty handy guy, and you got the tools to do it out of your garage, i would say its a good saturday project! I get them done at the dealership in about 4 hours. But its like routine for me and i'm lucky enough to use a lift.

You might want to make sure you have a Haynes or Chilton manual handy in case you run into a snag somewhere. Otherwise its a pretty self explainatory job. i would say for your amerature tuner/mechanic job difficulty is is an 3 out of 10. 10 being very difficult and 1 being easy.

 

I see that on ebay the clutch kit doesn't include a flywheel. Is it possible I can use a the same one that is on my car. And also, it says that the clutch fits for 90-02 accords and all f and h series motors. To me it sounds like a possible chance of it not fitting. I don't know I could be wrong, bit if I am please correct me.

 

Very Easy to Change a clutch,

Its just when you dont have the right tools its harder, But Basically its all straightforward, its Mainly Just Disconnecting sensors, Taking out bolts and what not, Disconnecting Cv's which basically requires taking apart most of the front suspension, Removing the starter and all that good stuff

But like locobanana said, get a Haynes Manual, Its a step by step instruction with pictures and everything.

 

yes i would try to stay away from clutches that arent labeled for your specific vehicle. Maybe Ebay was a bad idea, but at least its a start. Maybe someone else here on H-T can point you out in the right direction.

And you can re-use your flywheel. Though, I would just suggest going to your local machine shop to get it resurfaced before re-installing it! Shouldnt cost more than 50 bucks.

 

Thanks a lot. I guess I just order it and give it a try.

 

You should probaly get your fly wheel re-surfaced. And while you take your fly wheel off id replace the rear main seal. Its like 8 bucks from auto zone.
