I also decided to go ahead with a new clutch. I grabbed a new LT1-S clutch from Monster clutch. They have a billet adapter flywheel to go with the factory LT1 clutch out of the C7 Vette. I believe they say it holds 800hp with a factory feel. I don't need it for the power ability but its also a 9.5" dual clutch that should last a long time.

I pulled the suspension apart to clean it up, flip the shocks over so the adjusters are at the top and spring buckets at the bottom. I also swapped out the UCA's. Jay and Blake made some small but important changes to the geometry of the arms based on feedback provided. The adjusted their jigs and sent me an updated set. I'm sure the alignment will be dead on this time.
