Re: Project Lex

Been awhile since I updated. Big change for this year was changing out the CD009 setup to a Grannas Tremec Magnum T56 setup. My CD009 was starting to make a wierd grinding/buzzing noise when slipping the clutch which turned out to be a pilot bearing issue. But I also hated that twin disc. So I went with the GR700 kit (Magnum 6spd factory rated at 700tq). Comp Clutch MPC twin disc. This clutch is similar to the McLeod and very catered to high hp street cars. So it's meant to hold power and drive nice, which holy cow does it! Had a driveshaft made local at AA Driveline out of .100" DOM 2.5" steel. Also had to drop the diff and replace the 3.27 gears with 4.10's to match up with this new trans gearing.

So far super happy with it! Drives 100x better than the old setup in just about every aspect. And installs easier too. I actually enjoy driving this car again!!
