Default Clutch install

I have gathered almost all of the necessary components for my supercharger build and hope to install and tune in about a month and half.


I have a competition clutch w/flywheel brand new. Should I have it installed now to break it in before the SC install? It's going to be hard to baby the car as it is now (stock). Let alone after I have 400+whp.

I was thinking install now and break it in prior to SC install. And take it easy for 100-200 miles after install.

Instal now. You have to remove the blower to do it later. Deff good to put a few hundred miles on it. Breaking it in sux so get it out of the way

I think that your thinking is wise.

Install the clutch before SC install I did this on mine stage 2 comp clutch and broke it in for 500 miles. I also did it myself with 24" jack stands and a jack on the floor by myself. Not that bad a lot easier if you have a friend to help. Also you save a lot of money.
