Re: chirping in 2nd...

["Jason Rappaport" <Jrapp@fred.net>]

I have an 86 8 valve, which I have had for about 2 years.  The clutch feels
pretty good still on it, and I can recall chirping in second many times!!  
I try not to abuse it too much though, it may be cool, but your tires and
transmission tend to frown on it!!!
