If you don’t look back at your car while walking into work, you’re driving the wrong car

What are you currently running for a flywheel? I just bought a McLeod Street pro clutch for my 96 SS and in the air about what flywheel I want

It’s been a while since I’ve done any updates. Haven’t really done anything more to the car until now. I FINALLY lowered it.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! I got some new rubber online about a week ago. Haven’t had the time to have them mounted up yet tho. And I got a couple good pics of the car today while I was at Redbox picking up a movie!

Well guys. That engine lasted a solid 3 years and I finally had to tear it back out. I’m gonna say I folded an oil ring when I assembled it. It’s always burned oil since I put it together. But it’s literally always ran awesome. The car has outran countless cars that it probably shouldn’t have including a 2012 SRT8 Charger, a 2008 M3 BMW, and many many more. Finally got sick of it burning oil and took it apart only to find this. I’ve already bought another engine and have the block prepped to be assembled. Also bought a set of rebuilt heads that have been decked 0.007 and bigger injectors and a big fuel pump. Gonna reuse my cam and rockers and valve springs. They all looked okay during tear down. I bought a tapered ring compressor this time around too so hopefully no piston ring issues... but hey, it was my first build and it was a blast while it lasted! Should have it back up and better than ever in a few weeks!! I’ll keep the thread updated
