Project is on hold due to funds. I was going to put a stock clutch in and just put everything back together but I decided to go with a Centerforce dual friction clutch kit. I am going upgrade all the wear items, motor mount, plug wire, plugs, hose. When i was done at jegs its about $800. I start a new job tomorrow so it will be a few weeks. I got the motor all ready to go less those parts.
Now I just need to figure out how to get this purchase past the wife

All I need now is to stop by the dealership to pick up some new flywheel bolts and some time to work on it.

Tell me about it. I have worked every day for almost 3 weeks. Today was my first day off. I had to do the wife's brakes and my 10 year old had a birthday party at Chucky Cheese. Man I hate that mouse. He has haunted me for the last 16 years and I got another 8-10 left.

I am suppost to look at some chrome 2002 SS 17" rims tomorrow at a swap meet. He is asking 500. I think if they are nice I am going to get them.

Looking good. Can't wait to hear about you actually getting to drive it. Are they just the wheels, or are tires included too?
