Im sure you have answered this question in a different thread, but have you figured out your clutch problems with your current setup?

well sadly no :banghead: i still am running the LS7 clutch.... its usually like 85+ deg here, so my IATs are usually thru the roof. but on cold days, i literally have no first and second gear as far as WOT goes... it just slips so bad its basically disengauged. i dont know if you remember i was running a spec 3+ but it was chattering like crazy and then it started to fail. i have a brand new one they sent me last june but i never reinstalled it, so im gunna give that one more try before i go with the twin disc.

 

U goin to paint the door jams too?

i am going to follow the silver and the pinstripe inside the door jams about an inch, but im not going to paint them all..... that would be major major time

if you go with either of these, i would wait for the tvs system to come out. the 122 could possibly be short breathed for either of these in the higher rpms..

ya i was considering that..... the 122H definately wont work well on the 427 but IMO it will make plenty of power on the 408. im only going for 620-650 whp

 

 

Oh, only 620-650 LOL. Cant wait to see the new setup. Remember, if you are selling any performance parts you will not be using, I am local!!

haha ya i guess that does sound odd :lol: . the reason i say that is, its hard for me to spend all that money and get 50 whp or so.... but i figure it will be more reliable and last longer. i love the motor i have now, but since i will be needing to rebuild it i dont want to keep the same thing. i have a weird thing about that :wtf:

 

hey KP, any pics of the new look? We're getting anxious... maybe a teaser ;)

not yet, last week was still tearing it apart. i kinda slacked off due to the holidays lol. hoping to get time to put paint down this week, have it all reassembled by early next week. regardless i should get some pics of it all sanded down right :D ?
