Having taken the thread down a rabbit hole, I'll help bring it back by posting this picture of the wrenches I welded together to torque one of the top bell housing bolts that is otherwise a bear to get. I'm sure there are less caveman-like ways to get that bolt, but I had a cheap wrench set and a mig welder handy so did this... I've used it on the same bolt several times now, so not a complete waste of cheap wrenches...

Hard to argue with what you got there, but I still think a modified car would do better with an upgrade over stock. I've also run stock clutches on tuned 996's, but it's probably not the best recipe long term.

Probably most depends on the driver though. I'm pretty easy on clutches, but opted to go stronger this time and have zero regrets.
