Gen 2 clutch???
OK, I figured I'd do the lightweight flywheel, but a mechanic told me that while I'm already there to do the clutch, which he recommended the Centerforce one.
Anyone here recommend that one or something different?

You would be a fool to not reuse stock. For the price you can't beat it Mike. Besides even if you Roe it the stocker should be fine. When mine dumps at 900+ rwhp another stocker is going in it. I know several running over 900 with a stock clutch for many trouble free miles.

Oh man! That's the best news I've heard in years! Finally something that I don't need to buy on a car!
Now I did hear also today that it is a waste of money to buy the 1.7 roller rockers unless I'm going to mess with the heads and/or cam.
Is that true as well?

You had me at hello

What a nice Valentine's Day gift that would make. Oh Joel, you shouldn't have!

tator and DLM both agree on the OEM clutch for that kinda power. thats what im doing for now at least. and honestly i dont track my car so its gonna live a bit longer id assume.

and 1.7's are always a good mod to do regardless

1.7 rockers on stock heads are not worth the 1000 bucks IMO. The money is better spent on nice headers.

I just talked to Joel on the phone and he told me that I can install the Tony Fidanza on my own in the garage with a small amount of tools which would include a hammer, chisel, and a pry bar
