Scott,
What are you going to go with, for a clutch setup?

Start a new thread in the race section if you want. We can all throw our opinions out there.

Yes I was going to use the street slayer clutch & the 3 finger borg & beck pressure plate he had made, he has a big block with SR heads flowing 330 in a B body so I figure it should work in mine. my car is heavier then Marks.

When my dad and I bought a guy's stash of 18 spline stuff, I just used an old Hays B&B and Ram bronze puck disc that came with the transmissions. I figured, that we bought it and we had it. Gave me a chance to drive it around and see what I liked or didn't like.

Then I found that the pressure plate was not flat and burned up the disc after a bunch of abuse by me.

Either way, now I know what I want and what feel and I bought a brand new B&B / Long style McLeod disc that you can even add counter weight to. I got a McLeod 600 series disc. This setup is supposed to be good to over 650hp and guys are running even more than that. Very Very streetable, as that weighs even more heavily to me!

Scott, you're doing it right. So try out what you have and go from there!

American Powertrain said the street slayer clutch is rated at 800 hp & 800 ft tq and i will say it never failed to hook for me period and you can call them they where very helpful...

Im glad it all worked out for you guys with the trade. I too prefer automatics and have on in my cruiser and daily drivers.

I learned how to drive a stick when I was about 14. Now Im 28 and havent driven once since until a couple of days ago. I was rusty at first but it came back pretty quickly. Now Im thinking that I want a little beater just so I can enjoy shifting gears again. It was fun!!!
