i've done my clutch with a mech at work. if you dont have a lift it WILL be a bitch. if you have a lift its cake. took us 4 1/2 hours and niether of us did it before. i recommend the ky stage 3. also this is a steal for anybody that wants a new bumper.. noticed the price is shipped too

Hey guys,
I'm planning on s/c'ing my 2.2 next year, but its also going to be driven in the winter. What should I know or do if I plan on s/c'ing it? I've got most of what I need lined up already (gm stage 2 pulley and injectors, stock heat exchanger setup)

I plan on doing mine myself.Make sure you get fluid.From what Cody(Klutch) has told me,he just dropped the driver side of the subframe only(passanger side loosened) and pulled the trans back to change it.I plan on doing this but I won't tackle the LSD my self.The dam case is a PITA to split.
