t-5 or clutch gone?

i got a 87 formaula with 350 bored out with big cam, 373's with a t-5. Left from a dead stop reved it up and dumped it i was kinda drunk and tried hittin the brake to sit still and bake the tires up because they were dry rotted anyway. so i missed the brake and next thing i knew i took oof in first and tried to hit second and it was gone and so was 3,4,5, and reverse. Came to a stop and could not move at all. wheni push the clutch in and let out nothin. but I noticed when I brought the clutch to the top i heard a spinning noise or scrapping noise. like the clutch was stripped. I just wanna no how much money i am talkin about to fix this .

later

Blew up your clutch. Shouldn't be playing with cars that way when you are "kinda drunk". Gonna hurt yourself or even worse, someone else. Wrenching while having a few is ok, but no test drives.

Not near what it would have cost you if you had hit someone while in that condition.

That said, at the very least, the trans has to come out; you'll be able to tell better then.

I just had my clutch replaced.

Total it was $450

I think parts were around 300, labor was around 150.

That includes the flywheel getting machined as well.

That is a standard clutch too as I am all stock, I didnt see the need to put in a performance clutch.

hope that helps.
