I've decided to go with the tilton twin carbon clutch this time around, I don't want any lockout issues at 10k+ or slipping and I think it's quite a bit lighter than most clutches so that's a plus.
I bought an aem ems kit yesterday...I'm not ready to use it yet since I want to max out the stock mas first but I got such a good deal on it I couldn't pass it up. It came with a 3 bar pressure sensors so I'll need to get a 5 bar and I need to get a 4" intake as well.
just waiting to hear back from David Buschur on a few things before I pull the trigger on the tilton.
the BR BF 272 cams/springs/retainers have arrived, the Kevlar timing belt and new ARP head studs are on the way.
I'll get back on the Stealth to get it ready for DD duty tuesday most likely...it has some bugs to work out.
I'm keeping my eye on what Indy Evo is doing with a stock intake manifold, so far he's making about the same power as the 2500 driven innovations piece. I've already told him/david in a post that I want one when it's available.

it's ~ 550 on pump and ~ 700 on race gas...full weight car. I prefer to go fast with class 
11.41 @ 125 is what it runs on pump...very similar to the evo in it's current trim.

So mellon, do you think its a good idea to run the buschur cams w/just springs and retainers and studs? I'm looking into selling my HKS 280's and buying the buschur one's before they're outa stock again. Planning on running them on my green till i get my next setup in, damn i hate waiting, haha.

the bigger cams like the tomei 280, bf 272, gsc s3, jun 272 are probably overkill for a stock head. I might make more sense to do a gsc S2 with springs/retainers/studs.

well I had to educate some fools with it last night...kill list:
c6 vette
s10 with slicks, nitrous and small block chevy v8 crammed in there
trailblazer ss with nitrous, stall, tune
yeah, I'm done with the Stealth for now. the titon twin carbon clutch set me back a pretty penny so I'm saving money up. Maybe by the end of the month I'll be ready to pull the trigger on the shorty/head from BR
