im suprised the engine bay looks as clean as it does

This clutch lasted 134,579 miles

Stock oil sump

Now with the RMW Oil Sump Trap


Here is a rundown on what im having done:
Replaced Clutch
Supercharger
Rear Main Seal
Trans Seals
Clutch bushings
Oil pan gasket
Oil Sump
Repair RMW Header
Install TSW Engine Mount
PowerFlex Bushings (Sway Bar/Steering rack/Gearbox/Large and Small Engine Bushings)

Also should have a new rad core support which fixes the last thing after my run in with an Gator
