Friendly Reminder (avoid problems)!!

Just an FYI for you LT1 T56 guys. When you install a tranny and remove the bolt that holds down the clutch fork.... PUT LOCKTITE ON THAT BOLT!!!!!

Just a reminder. I had that bolt back out on me and made my car inoperable. When I pressed in the clutch, the fork rubbed the pressure plate and eventually stalled out the motor. (This happened in neutral and coasting. I pressed in the clutch and the motor died)

So I pulled the tranny, tightened the bolt (and added locktite), and re-installed it. Everything is running fine now.

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.
