Per Tremec tech use GM Syncromesh from the beginning and stay with it - no need to drain and refill.

What about the clutch? My Mcleod says not to get on it completely for the first 500 miles.... Anybody doing this?

Brad, I believe that's just standard break-in. Most clutch companies, as well as brake companies, have a break in time. Most people don't follow those directions, but then again who reads directions?

Brad, I'm ruinning a CF dual friction. I got on mine HARD about 100 feet from where I lowered the jack. Gotta check and make sure it ain't gonna break :icon996:

I'd rather break around the corner from my house than miles away.
