G56 and Smarty Jr.
 

Thinking about getting a Smarty Jr. and my questions are, is the stock G56 gonna hold up and is an Airdog or Fass system really needed for the Smarty Jr.

Only mods so far are AEM Intake and 5" Exhaust

those stock clutches are weak.

Yup. The dual mass flywheel is a POS. I just about blew mine up and it caused a huge vibration. Plan on an upgraded clutch then your good to go.

KXTRAP43 how do you like your southbend clutch and do you do much towing.

I like it. It takes a bit of getting used to. I have not pulled anything yet since its been in but i do tow a couple of trailers. Others say they work great though. Can't wait to try it out towing. ( after I do u-joints ) :argh:

What Is the Truck Expected To Do?
 

For normal daily driving and recreational towing, I'd say yes and no. If you're sled pulling and drag racing I'd say no and yes. At least you have manual control of the clutch, so if you know what you're doing and don't abuse it, you'll be fine.

The guys with the automatics are the ones that really have to be careful with the tuners.

Thanks for the replys. I got my Smarty Jr. today :jump: and installed sw1 and man this does make the truck perform well. Can't wait to see how it tows the horse trailer.
