Talk to Clint...He da man....you wont believe his price for a set of DSS1400 30 rolled forged spline bad ass shafts.

Mine are on the way.

Two thing that you might have forgot. Number one...condition of fluid. I was changing my fluid every third run last season to avoid similar problems and or the dreaded peddle stuck to the floor syndrome.

Two. Get a real clutch...lol

You know now that I think of it, I really didn't have as many problems with it after I added the clutch reservoir.

Bah! The clutch is fine, I'm sure I have many many more years on it....

That's for sure! Clint changed my tranny and differential over to that purple stuff. The trans shifts so nice now. I never had any problems shifting before but the before and after is remarkable, what a difference! I love it.

Just wanted to let everyone know that we are now distributors for the Drive Shaft Shop.

I will have one of there 9" conversions in this Thursday. will post pics of the parts and install.

We also have in stock again our 10mm plug wires. These are made by the same company that makes wires for Nascar.

I can also have them made in custom lengths for those doing remote coil mounting.

Thanks

Mike

Thanks for the info.About the plug wires. Is there some benefit to going to other than stock wires.I've looked at them before and they were a little pricey so I was wondering if the stock ones were crap?

Anyone other than myself ever use Spark plugs from Sonic Spark? I used them in my Harley's for yrs and have them in my car now.

Looks like indexed spark plugs. Wasn't that an old school method for adding a couple hp? Does it work with newer engines? well the drilling of the hole that sometimes went with indexing your plugs

I never had a dyno after but I damn well knew on my bikes when I pulled them out and when they were in there.I just automatically rolled that over to the car once I bought that.
