Clutch Issues - No Burnouts

I forgot to mention there was another issue I had with my car with the linkage binding under hard acceleration. This didn't happen all the time but it was often enough to be a PITA.

The clutch fork has a spring clip on the back side that holds it to the bracket inside the bellhousing. On my car the clip was broken off. I had figured that when you had the fork clipped to the throwout bearing and the rod attached on the other side it would hold it in place so I put the car together that way. When one of the fingers broke on my pressure plate and was going to have to replace the clutch I decided to get a new fork. Well low and behold the occasional binding disappeared and and I have about 15k miles on the new clutch and without an issue or a bind.

BTW, My car will smoke the hides at will.
