im hoping the ls1tech series wont be to strict about this cause there will be alot of people not racing.
its easy to get on and not that expensive. it will work for me untill i can fit the belhousing into my budget, a cage needs to come first.

I'm gonna be looking at M6 cars in my class, if they don't have it...I'll protest. If I carry the extra 30lb to be legal...then so should everyone else

you are correct...can't modify the bellhousing in any way...but...
Mcleod's fits in w/o any modifications required to the bellhousing. needed some grinding of the oilpan/rear cover due to the design of the LS1 and the requirement of a steel plate behind the flywheel.
