Goodrich hose? What does that mean and where can I get one?
"GB" is Greg Brown (GregBBRD here), he builds custom hose assemblies through his "J2 Precision" hose company. The clutch hose has the fitting to mate with the factory hardline at the swaybar mount, and connects directly to the slave cylinder with a banjo fitting. It uses Goodrich stainless-braided hose, covered with their insulating sleeve.

I like it because it avoids trapping the second hardline under the starter, which gets in the way of loosening the starter bolt in order to get the hardline out from behind the starter, to be able to remove the clutch slave. Besides it looks cool.

I finished the conversion last night. Only thing needed is to bridge the wires at the back so that the starter works with the key. I used a relay with an open cover and bump it myself to check everything.

I found no real difference in the operation of the motor between the aluminum flywheel and the steel flywheel. It is possible that the aluminum needs a little more gas as it doesnt have as much inertia to keep everything going. I also found the spec stage III+ to be very easy to modulate and has zero chatter. It is a new PP, and flywheel, but the intermediate plate is used, but in good condition. The H adjusters have been fixed in place.
