Took down the trans to inspect the clutch. To my surprise. The clutch is OEM with the original bolts on it The throw out bearing started to leak. Hence the reason I got low pedal pressure. I was in there so I said let me slap on the lnf clutch. Compared both clutches. Lnf clutch is not gonna last lol. Waiting for a clutch to pop up for sale. If by then I don't have my southbend stage 4+ out of the cobalt lol.
Bought a low miles used clutch. Slapped it on the flywheel since both look pretty damn close the same in west. Clutch looked to be properly broken in. It's a spec stage 3 clutch. I said screw it and slapped it on.
Installed a used but fairly new throw out bearing. Had about 400 miles on it. I took it out of a trans I installed and then removed to keep lmao.
Transferred in the top trans mount from the cobalt into the redline. It's a f35 solid top mount. I have no use for it in the cobalt no more since I'm doing f23. Trans gave me trouble going in but she is in. Fully bolted. Next comes the final assembly lol.
Had multiple issues bleeding the clutch. Ended up changing the clutch distro block. Didn't help. Changed out the master cylinder. It was in the trunk of the car already. Brand new in box. Didn't help but def replaced this worn out thing. Had to go buy a pneumatic vacuum bleeder. With some clutch leg power from my wife and the bleeder. I got to purge all the nasty brake fluid out. All fresh fluid in there. Haven't done the brakes yet but everything helps. I got a lot of clutch pedal now. It's great!!!!
The last mount I needed to upgrade. All of them are in and torqued in sequence how it should. Kinda pissed I had to remove the fuse box but it only took an extra 3 mins lol.
Got her all buttoned up. Bled the brakes as much as I could. I feel like I got air in them. Not a lot but a little. I slam on them and the car locks up and brakes hard lol. Love it. Abs light is on but who cares lol. The amount of braking power is worth it. Them axles are a big upgrade over anything. I compared them and holy crap was it a big difference. Drove the car up and down. Goodness did it feel awesome. Btw the coilovers make this thing look ******* amazing. The ride quality is def better than FE3. I got the rears maxed out and it still has rake. 0 noise going thru bumps. I did some modifying back there
ill get morning pictures tomorrow
Could I talk you into taking more pictures of the intake out of the supercharger? It's similar to the way I have my intake setup on my cobalt and I am curious what it looks like.

google up a stock intake for a redline. It's different. Bolts up to the trans.
I did but I can't seem to find any pictures of where the airbox is mounted and where it sucks in air.
it gets mounted to the transmission. On the left side there is 3 random studs on the trans. That's where the intake mounts too. Then there is a coupler that goes into the fender well and the intake goes up into the fender area. This is the main sucker of air.
Passed Inspection no issues. Drove her to track to race but no good. Drove 2 times to car wash and they were closed. At least the biggest thing is done and over with. Took a pic of my halos on my favorite color.
Ok so I managed to get another redline recently. It's literally stock as can be. I paid 1k for it. I thought to myself. Drive it til it does? Sure. But let's mod it.
I got the crazy idea of modding it on a smallll budget. I have my blue cobalt and well that car I don't worry what things cost. I just pay lol. This car. Ehhhh
does
does
sp that being said.
I already registered it and insured. Currently parting out a SC cobalt so I have some upgrades for it.
