with all the work you guys are doing on this why did you not try and make it a 4 bolt main (as the 2 bolt could be the downfull of this ), so you know its going to hold up under the power its going to make. or is this something you are looking into?
Top job you guys are doing any way, keep it up,
lol there i was thinking you guys are up North somewhere, and you are down this way, about an hour from me
i will pop down when i get the car on the road

This is why we designed our own Arp stud kit and then had the gurde plate cnc to fit hence all the sump bolts play a part in the strenght now . There is a lot going on in there with not to much room to spare , Even with the 2.3 stroker that we intend doing is going to be a proper challenge.
Would be really good to see your car and possibly even give it a dyno run :thumbup:

Bandit Nice one mate, was there much left of it? :thumbup1:
Had just started to touch the rivets on the friction plate , Safe to say i dont think its ever been changed so under the circumstances she lasted well .

Have you gone for another OEM/Blueprint clutch ? Or have you put in an uprated one now ?

Saveing the pennies and put DR old helix in as he wants a new one , That still holds the 380hp mark so will be fine in our car
