Ordered a OEM master and slave cylinder for next weekends maintenance party.
Went with an OEM style clutch. Going to keep the current stock flywheel. Thought about going lighter, but as a daily I think the current one is good.

I have some FM rotors from my NA that I'm going to put on the NB today. Right now there is something going on with the brakes. It feels like the rotors may be warped badly. Hoping this fixes it.

FM Rotors on. What a PITA. The old rotors were destroyed. I reused the pads for now, since I they had some meat on them and looked okay. Honestly this should hold me over until I get the wilwood stuff.

Gonna take a bunch of pictures once the sun moves down a bit.

Thanks for the post $hane. I drooled over those pictures of the NB while I waited for Tom to meet me in Joplin to swap.

Alex, you are needing a v8 swap in that.

Just purchased:

RB Gasket to fix exhaust leak.
New filter for RB intake.
SS Brake lines.
Polyurethane full kit.
FM Sways.

I'll be pulling the subframe, cleaning, removing surface rust, and repainting before the bushings go in. Also going to loop P/S lines while the I'm in the area.
