Well, folks, I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is, the clutch is in and seems to be working fine. The bad news is: I reconnected something wrong or failed to reconnect something so my car will not go over 3k rpms and has a check engine light.
Autozone states that the codes are:
411
1357
Any help out there?

BTW, after the first start of the engine, I saw that the passenger side TDC sensor was disconnected and connected it, that might explain the 1357, but I'm still lost on the 0411?

Found it, passenger TDC sensor. Apparently my father needs to go back to connectors and how to plug them 101. Everything appears green! Wohoo! 1.5 months of waiting and I'm finally behind the wheel.
I'm off to drive around!

Hey all
Spent the day removing my bell housing and it seems to be stuck around the starter area..
Just wanna make sure i unbolted the right bolt..
I put my extension here...
And this is the bolt i removed.. Is this what you mean by removing the top bolt of the starter?? Is there another bolt holding the starter in?
I might just have to jiggle it a bit more!!

About how many hours does it take most of you guys to do this?
One thing, I noticed the broken clutch disc, I'm pretty sure that part broke before the disc was dropped. I did an emergency clutch change after I depressed the clutch and revved up to 9000 . . . the car started moving forward! Upon teardown I found the same broken part out of the disc dragging on the FW, so it may be another weak point.
I still come back to this write up when I do a clutch change, just in case I may forget something, it saves so much time.
