      I already have my exhaust dropped cause I'm going to sell it. Haha. I just need to get the rear in so I can jack the car up higher.
      Thats the Competition Clutch?

        I got to work on a lift
        But yessir that's the 2600 series.

        Also on a side note. Apparently GM or any parts stores don't have the inspection cover for the LT1 bell housing. There was 2 on eBay. I picked up a used one for $40..

        • No wonder it was easy! I'll have that T56 resting on my chest haha.
          Let me know how you like that clutch. I ended up getting a Spec 3.

          I don't have an inspection plate. I have a full plate that goes along with my bullet proof bell housing.

            Will do, the 2600 series was probably a little aggressive for my power levels, but it will go with my solid poly. Mounts.

            Edit: these DONT have the valeo PP so I'm interested to see what the pedal feel is like.

                      • Just curious if there is a reason they didn't use flange bolts to mount the trans to the block

                          I couldn't tell you.. I bought my trans as bell housing separate so I didn't have GM bolts.

                            • anybody have good luck with an energy suspension torque arm mount? didnt really have wheel hop on acceleration but i think i will with T56/4.10 setup. Aside from that i like the stiff and race car feel the poly mount gave me with the auto.
