Wow, what did you spend it on?? When I come back from leave, I'm gettin the SPEC clutch, first, and then probably the Corsa exhaust!! By this time next year, I'll have headers, and heads/cam, if all goes as did this last year.

I have been doing alot of little things that prepare the car for large amounts of streetable HPs I am going to slaughter a new turbo next year. I will try to make the dream come true, at least straight line not prepared for the twisteez next year but I plan to run them down and piss them off on the strait a ways and make them move right. I beleive I can make this dream come true with $3500 worth of engine work and 450-500hp. I also realize I will be set back by a tuned 911 turbo and probly some other cars it is a never ending cycle that I will never win but I must try for the sake of the american V8 1/4 the price and quicker to a 100MPH.

I dont know if its still on, but there was just a gp on star clutches. I know for a fact that a stage III kevlar was $459(LT1, the LS1 was 20 or so more). That is a pretty decent deal on a clutch that can handle 500+hp according to they're ads. Throw in a aluminum flywheel while your at it (cuz ya know you might as well go really in debt) for $300, and you have a pretty serious setup.

Thanks Rob, but I have to wait 'til I get back from vacation... That aluminum flywheel is a good idea, though!! ;)

Aluminum flywheels are good for racing and high RPM but the word on the street is stay steel big cams not enough rotating mass and your engine stalls while Idleing and the holeshot on the street would require 4000rpm dumps to launch without bog. Now I have heard the stage III is one awesome clutch. Ask around about the aluminum flywheel before you order it and then make your mind up.

Mycar2... I was talking with my wife about a month ago, and she had the idea of a 'F-Body Europe Widows Club' For when she losses her husband on the weekends. When are your meetings?
