Yep, I'm thankful for not having to clearance a bunch of stuff- the small things in that regard tend to kill timeframes.
As for the booster, I've read in a few threads where one person pipes up and claims they had to move their booster over 1/2" for IM clearance, but a) I've never seen photos and b) they could've had the engine mounted in a less-than-ideal manner.
The flywheel in question is the RHD M30 flywheel which accepts a 228mm clutch. The guy I got the trans from has a fresh M30 single mass flywheel and clutch setup he offered me, but I was hoping to save a few lbs on the flywheel and a few bucks reusing the new clutch I just put in my car. Rama's HD m30 flywheel weighs 8.5lbs and takes a 240mm clutch, perhaps that'd be a better route....or just to not use a lightweight flywheel at all and snag that local 240mm setup for cheap. I know a few folks who use the 7# on the M20 without issue, but I have no idea how an M30 would handle such a light flywheel.
That's extremely good to know about the rocker locks! I'll do a bit more research and likely cross them off the list.
Turns out half the fancy stuff I needed I don't even need. This is getting cheaper by the minute! Thankfully Vic included the both chains, rails, tensioner, and various other parts to help the build along.
I think I'm going to try to use my stock M20 engine harness and just lengthen a few connectors as opposed to using an M30 harness. I also need an M30 TB if anyone has one.
