I had SS lines put on for both clutches I had installed...ACT and Exedy twin. Liked both - couldn't tell you if it's better or worse, but I am pretty sure Exedy recommends using a stainless line on the twin clutch.

Not sure what slutch you are going with either.

I have a stainless steel line I will be installing. I think the big mod is removing
the restrictor pill more then the line itself. Becareful if you launch and not drop
the clutch resulting in drivetrain destruction! ..lol

I'm doing the Shep build so that shouldn't be an issue. He recommends going SS anyhow, I was just curious as to who had done it. I'll might as well get both the upper and lower then.

It's for an ACT clutch.

that's always been my targeted goal for my car. a nice steady power curve from the ground up.

i will take even power delivery any day over a large spike and large drop.

Denny any luck getting a hold of Nate?

I'm still talking to Chad, he said he would charge 385 for a tune and dyno time. The only reason
it would be more is if you had bigger injector's. So it's a better deal. What are you guys thinking?

Mike

Don't know if any of you guys are Pens fans, but it looks like Marian Hossa is coming to town. Awesome... Until I saw the price we paid for him. Armstrong, Christensen, Esposito, and another first round pick. We also get Pascal Dupuis in the deal. Not sure if I like this rental. There's absolutely no chance to resign this guy after this year. Not with Malkin and Crosby. Prove me wrong Chero. At any rate, when Crosby comes back our offense is going to be rediculous.

If you guys are interested I can setup a dyno day at Slowboy on a Saturday or Sunday with special rates.

Whether you like SBR or not, I will be the only one touching your car. If someone can email me a list of cars/mods/engine management I can get back to you with some group rates!

Nate good hearing from you. Should I gather a list of people interested and
send all at once or just have everyone put the same heading in a email and
let them send individual? What kind of dyno do you have? Dynojet / dynapak?

But but but we'll have to videotape the runs and sync the time up with the atomic clock because if you make too much power than what a compressor is allowed to do in a perfect environment people will call bull**** the sky will fall and I'll poop my pants and write run on sentences and.
