They say it is lighter than the original setup, but they are not running a T56, either. It has a TH400 in it, which is heavier than a T56/clutch/etc. But I can see your point on the xfer case.

As I read the whole thread, it seems more believable, but I don’t care for it.

Jesse…how is your LSx project coming along? :blue:  
I can’t wait to see it done.
