So i recieved my stealth plate from diesel nut motorsports but have yet to recive my clutch and i have a strange want to put the redline back on the truck.... it already has more fuel than god intended and is faster than ***** however it could use more...... so ive been pondering putting the redline on need some advise yes or no, if i dont i might as well have it shipped off since its no longer on the truck and in a nice pretty box however the urge is very very strong

Before I replaced my clutch I just had a little fun and smoked the hell out of it. This made me feel like I was replacing it cause I had to. If I had pulled a perfectly good clutch out I would have felt guilty about. Install it and have fun if the new one is already en-route anyway.

If you've got one coming anyway, might as well just see what kind of abuse it can stand up to

Cliff, you have already killed that clutch, killed the transmission, killed the brakes, did I miss anything??

How about you take it easy until you get all the correct parts under the truck, then start thinking about what you can break next.

If you need, send me that Redline and I'll keep that temptation out of your mind till you are ready for it!:pc:
