Act will be quad strapping and quad riveting the pressure plate to create a stage 5 extreme for me. they said they will do it for just the 50 dollar inspection and everything else they are paying for and covering shipping as well.
if it blows again i will be soo freakin heated!!! at that point i would need to go to an osgiken clutch system with push type conversion.

If you willing to put good time in color match and clear it, if not paint it black. It's a pretty big ***** but looks pretty..

I would also do a slight contrast paint or polish under the hood, good examples that come to mind "Shern" or "TeeLex"...something to think about?

Good lookin out.
I agree. Keep your number of colors/sheen minimal and add bit of contrast.

the blown clutch pressure plate came back with quad straps for more power capacity.
the straps are soo thick!
