Question GTUs Drivetrain Question.

If I use the GTUs drivetrain with my turbo motor can I keep the TII flywheel and clutch? or do I need an the NA clutch and flywheel? Thanks in advance.

No, you must use the NA flywheel and clutch. This is a really bad idea Hass, just put ALL the turbo bits in.

The passenger's side broke, right? It's almost guaranteed to happen. There's no difference, go ahead and use the GTUs mount.

Captain Obvious strikes again!

That's the part number for the mount you need, but it's useless because you're planning on reusing yours. Mike's just being a post *****(how do you think he got to 4,000?).

The real solution to avoid it happening is competition mounts. But it's not an option for you since you need it this weekend. The stock mounts will be fine, but they WILL eventually break. And you'll get sloppy engine play again.
