I've got a Valair in my truck and that's the only clutch I will ever run.

Ive got a 2000 ford f250 with the 7.3 I would like to start modding it this summer, I would like to see around 450 hp any cheap but affective modds or tips anything. Reasoning behind this is my roomate is a little to cocky about his 05 6.0 stroker and want to show him whos boss :-)
