I added longtubes and a converter at the same time so I can't give a fair comparison of track times before and after. Still working on the trans tuning for the converter.

Can you describe the clunking you had? Mine clunks while shifting.

fdesalvo, I have an auto and when coming to a stop the drivetrain (I am thinking the stock driveshaft) would unload on itself and clunk. Once I installed the Shaftmasters driveshaft the clunking went away. If your manual clunks when shifting you probably need a MGW shifter or a new trans! Though manuals from China are made of glass

Nice review. The factory two piece DS still boggles my mind. The one piece just seems like a no brainer. I wonder how an ADS would fare with a V6?
