That way if the engine moves enough to touch it, its padded and will not wear thru for years if ever).
Damn, those guys are awesome ...
Also, we found our first defective part ... 2.5 inch test pipes from AAM ... Don't think that this bung should be located here !!!!

My Clutch suffered a similar fate, getting rid of the JWT.
Not impressed by the explanation of the retaining clips just giving way, and that they are not including them anymore.

I don't see it as a problem, for now I'm aiming for low 500's so 550cc is fine. Once I do heads, cams etc next year I'll upgrade to 1000cc ...

Very nice setup man. I'm from Seattle as well, where exactly are you located? My car is in the works for the exact same thing and it's down with Scott at SVRTechnologies and he's doing all my work. He also told me about John over at RREV to tune the UTEC and so I will give him a shot. Who tunes UTEC around here?
