I don't know if it is because I ground my flywheel thinner than most people, but my clutch does not hit the 5 speed housing. I am using a LUK clutch.

Try this thread

Chris,

http://www.opelgt.com/forums/clutch-...t=manta+getrag

Try out this thread, I was just checking it out myself.
Pretty good explaination and pictures of installing the getrag 240. It's for an ascona but the pictures are still relavent.

After the pictures, RallyBob mentions that the need to grind varies depending upon the clutch.

Chris
