I just got back, they said my used clutch pieces were most likely the problem, my new clutch disc got chewed up on the edge a bit (maybe due to the condition of the flywheel). They sent the flywheel out to be resurfaced and ordered new clutch kit so they said I should be set tomorrow for good. Cross your fingers guys

I drove it yesterday but had to leave it. I'm going back now to bleed the cooling system and put more ATF in the PS, hopefully I can get it home and work out all the kinks

Sweet. That PS reservoir is in such a crappy place, I just changed mine and flushed the fluid, it sucked.

The PS RES was bone dry, I filled it up last fall, but there is no sign of a leak. Filled it back up through one of those funnels, piece of cake. Car drives fine, I even took vids. This period is just sharpening up things.
