*UPDATE* Dyno tuning complete - results inside!
No we slid it over. Ur gonna use impact gun for like outside bolts, motor mounts have to come out...you'll see which ones. Drain diff. and take axles out. I hope you have spare muscles....haha your gonna need em to get those fly bolts off. Have Jeff or whoever hold the crank and use a block of wood for extra leverage. Don't forget your gonna need 2 jacks. 1 for the engine (under oil pan) so it doesn't smack ur head and 1 for the tranny. It's tricky and u have to be Gumby at times but you'll get er done.

I had an ACT Stage 2 Extreme, with a Prolite flywheel on mine... Worked great and took about 40-50 launches at the track with drag radials...
Get the streetlight though, prolight is great for road racing but that's about it. A mechanic of mine installed both for only 200 and I had it back 2 days later. Dezod hooked me up with the parts... He has some package prices for the ACT stuff... Best clutch you can buy IMO. GL.
BTW - Once the clutch is replaced you should definately be in the 13s. At 7psi untuned I ran a 14.5@96, averaging 14.6@95.5. This is all with a bad alignment so your traps should be just a tick over a hundred. I'm guessing 13.8@103. Hopfully you get it!

Update, after a late start today (12 noon - lateeee night last night! Oye)...
Just got the clutch out about 45 min ago. It was much easier than I thought it would be. Hopefully new clutch will be here on Monday according to fed ex.
Here are some photos of everything:
A cool setup I copied from the Helm manual. They actually have a tool like this to do the job - except theirs is metal of course. But, it works well!
Engine is supported by the chain...

Flywheel - I'm not too sure what this is supposed to look like stock, but if you look at the photo, the part where the clutch rode is actually about 1/8" LOWER than the outer edge. I thought it was supposed to be higher! If so, whis was my problem...WOW....

Pressure plate, it appears there are a few burned spots....

Cluch disc - didn't look too bad. Not sure if its glazed or not....actually had some material left.

Lastly - parting shots...See you in hell fvcker!
