Had to pull the transmission again, because unfortunately, finding a flywheel and clutch combo that work with the transmission I picked turned out to be more complicated than I expected. The transmission was installed knowing that I'd have to pull it again because it's necessary for exhaust fabrication.
Pro-tip: When you're reinstalling the transmission, don't use a creeper. You lose all your leverage when you're on wheels.
Also got the exhaust painted black. I don't like shiny exhausts.
