Are you upgrading to HD driveshaft axles? Changing rear end gears? Now is definitely the time while they have it. I know I made several upgrade decisions while they had my car and am glad I did.

You are gonna love it.

Yes I plan on doing the underside myself along with a GM Mechanic Bud of mine. Did you change your Clutch with your build....and if so, did u get LPE's ZR-1 clutch? What are your views on that clutch?

Holy Crap! Another jealous. Maybe someday I will have enough nickels...............or maybe win the lottery!

Sounds like you are going to have a real beast on your hands.

LPE stuff is top notch. Their stuff is used by other top builders because they do their homework. LMR knows what they are doing. Not sure what the earlier poster was warning about, but anyone can destroy a clutch-especially if not installed correctly. You may find more answers on the clutch in the Forced Induction-LPE thread.
