Installed my SBC Street DD today...

Wow, the thing is a beauty. What a nice clutch, and nice to see SBC includes the throw out bearing too.

If you do it yourself, just make sure you get the truck up in the air, and own or rent a good transmission jack.

I installed new flywheel bolts, and put lock tight on everything. Wasn't too bad getting the trans back in, but just make sure you get the two disc's lined up perfect before you try to push the trans back in. That nv5600 is HEAVY.

Now I can finally get 53 psi of boost in my truck, since its not slipping like before. The only thing I would recommend is getting the 94-97 slave set up. My 3600 pound pressure plate is too hard to push with the stock slave unit.
