Momma didn't raise no quitter, Tom. It will be worth it in the end.

New rings are en route. Again folks, remember one thing. Never listen to Edwin or Andy...

Well for that price I bet it is legit.....you get what you pay for....he's gonna spend some time on that thing.

[speedfoos]

I hope so. Another $120 on rings just went down the drain too. I wonder what the assembly is going to run me....

One time I listened to Andy and woke up the next morning in a bathroom stall in Perth Airport (Western Australia) with a broken broom handle and a case of bloody butt.

My notes say 457 grams. I did not actually weigh them.

Whatever it takes to reach 400whp on pump gas, Nick!

Ya that's what landed me in Australia guy. BTW I have your broom handle.

[andyman97]

Yeah, that's a great chop.

foos what clutch are u going to be using for 400whp lol .. i think u can reach that with ~20psi what do u think? man, i wish i had the tools and capability to do half the things ur doing myself good for u .. i jus think about the experience and how much im learning out of all this rather then figuring out how much money i spent i honestly must say i love the d17

[speedfoos]

Yay. Transmission went on the Blazer last night on my way to pick up my wife from the airport. I no longer have reverse or overdrive. I'm so happy I could spit.

We'll see on what it takes to reach 400 man. I haven't purchased my new clutch yet, but I know the little Exedy I have won't be able to take it. Comp clutches are out for sure though since they seem to fall apart on people.

Clint, I only have two words: Action Clutch

I'd suggest the 6 puck unsprung, it actually isn't bad at all, pretty comfortable once you get used to it. There are dealers on H-T.
