Haven't fixed the clutch yet, it's still slipping if pushed hard. Since the trans has to come out to fix it, I'm contemplating pulling the engine as well and finally cracking the seal on the crate engine. I'm going to lean more toward track days and road course time trials next season instead of autocross, so I can forgo getting the latest fastest trick tires and rear suspension upgrades and concentrate more on going faster in a straight line.

I currently run this crate engine:

If I bolt on some aluminum Fastburn heads and this cam, it will magically become this crate engine:

Should be a real nice upgrade in upper RPM horsepower while remaining very street-able and reliable.

Might also throw a road race style pan on it while it's out.
