    Clutch Fan Upgrade

    New stock one here. Don't get the parts store one, they have one to cover NA and Turbo and it's tiny. Stock turbo fanclutch is far larger and has more cooling fins. It may be cheaper than a stock one from the dealer, but the original lasted 20 years...

    UTI: Universal Technical Institute

    If you're taking core classes as well through UTI, I'd keep going and get a degree as a fall back. Lots of people get burned out of the mechanic business, and a desk job to fall back upon would be a good thing.

    is this small crack a cause for concern

    Where's IJ when you need him... I believe he could actually drill a small hole at the end of the crack to stop it from spreading if he really wants to do anything about it.

    No Start Problems

    I'd check the factory relay. Also, you said it has a new starter, it might not be a good one (it's happened before).

    Clutch Issue *Pics*

    That's why you don't assemble the flywheel/clutch/pressureplate on the motor. Put the PP and clutch disk on the tranny shaft, put the tranny in, and then tighten the PP to flywheel through the inspection plates (like in the TSRM) EDIT: damn you guys are quick :rofl:
