Thanks again to Laszlo and the guys at 034 for a fantastic shopping experience.
Newest mods/maintenance:
Southbend Stage 2 Daily clutch
034 flywheel
Apikol rear diff mount
JHM trio (shifter, bushing, linkage)
JHM 4:1 center diff
Another awesome 034 shirt!
The diff is going to be a week out since JHM has no 02X cores, but it's coming.
Single pic for now:

UPDATE:
Apikol rear diff mount installed. Pretty straight forward. Start to finish in under an hour using a lift and hand tools. All 4 bolts are in a very small area. Can be done with jackstands but a lift always makes things much easier. JHM shifter installed, took 1.5 hours due to some difficulty of the sizing of my snap ring pliers. The car has a difficult time finding reverse. Sometimes it's there, sometimes not no matter how hard I struggle. I tried many adjustments to no avail. Also the JHM preloaded (32%) reduction in throw is ludicrous. Like idiotic, reminds me of back in the day when people would cut the tops of their shifters and move the knob lower. I'm going to the least amount of reduction (15%) when I finally do the clutch and linkage end. On that note, I realized I don't own any triple squares. No one on this blasted island knows what they are to boot. So I ordered a set and will try the clutch and linkage next weekend.
Gratuitous brag video. Turn sound down. PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE THE VIDEO!

034 is just that good, they made his car into a plane.

Pattern looked full there, Ghostrider.
SERIOUSLY, I hate you. [drool]
I think if I flew a plane I would seriously have Top Gun music playing in my head 24/7...

Your mod list is almost exactly what I'd like my car to be at. I commend you on your choices so far! I'm interested to see how you like the southbend clutch.

did you notice any gains with the ECS UD pulley? i know it frees up some power, just wondered how noticeable it was.

It is noticeable, maybe not for the money though. I have the Nuespeed one.

Because its "rotating mass" on the crankshaft.
It's much similar to a lwfw in effects. I don't recall the weight of the OE harmonic balanced pulley. I'm guessing (6-8lbs) and the Nuespeed pulley is around .8lbs iirc. So that's a pretty good drop without the cost of a lwfw.
My theory is prob flawed but that's my brain

if anyone cares about pics, i can put them up again, it's just a 5% size difference and a few lbs.

Yeh, that's what I was thinking.
And look out, because it looks like your dog is eye-balling your new clutch!!!

Thanks for ordering from us, Alex! Feel free to let me know if you have any questions. [:)]
Hope you enjoy the lightweight flywheel; I've been running the first prototype we made almost 3 years ago. [up]

Good write up, in all honesty there is a bigger cost:gain margin with this pulley than a carbonio, most exhaust setups(not paired with tuning) and other simple mods people do for 5-10 HP

My second South Bend Clutch just arrived from those guys. I realize it's just being drop shipped, but the prompt, friendly service and great price from Laszlo and the other guys at 034 is fantastic!
KUDOS!
