I'm probably not going to dyno the motor Dan. They'd probably blow it up. If anyone is gonna blow it up, it's gonna be me....lol...

Not sure what clutch to go with yet. I have 2 Centerforce clutches. One is good, the other is junk. Maybe a Ram. I've heard good things about Ram. The flywheel is a Hays.

Hays has a good Street/Strip Clutch, look into Zoom too. I`m done with Centerforce.

Just curious, what are your issues with Centerforce?

I have no plans to drag race the Nova. This is just a toy to goof around with, but if I'm at a car show at a drag strip, I'd take it for a spin down the track and see what happens. I just prefer the factory correct look.

I have 2 cars with Centerforce clutches. One has a pretty bad chattering issue. The other one is ok. I just decided to try something different.
