So I pulled the tranny today, actually went easier than I expected. Learned a few things along the way which I will share later. As for what I found, the clutch is gone, down to the rivets on the pressure plate side, which created a nice little groove in the plate. The throwout bearing is bad, nice groove from where the pressure plate had been riding. When inspecting the flywheel, it has a good amount of heat marks on it, no cracks or grooves, and it has about 15mm of play which I am told is acceptable. Still considering if I should change it or not, perhaps just a good cleanup...

I'm ordering a new 987 5 speed plate, disk and bearing, which I hope is here before next weekend, here are some pics.
