"Down there anyway" the driveshaft is actually pretty far away from the clutch, FW (other side of tranny ) and literally takes 10 minutes to take out..
Haha fair enough. But I thought to myself, "Well, since I did all this work to get the car up enough on jack stands to comfortably pull the clutch in my garage, I'm not going down there again for a while. Might as well put in a lighter driveshaft and get those underpannels on!"

I agree that the money is better spent on other items, but once you have those done, why not pick up the last bits of easy hanging fruit? It's a cheap and pretty easy mod, and every little bit helps!

Edit: is there a bbk that runs in the 800 range? Ones I've seen seem to all be 1200+, and at that price the money does better going into my superchager nest egg. If there is a quality bbk that cheap, might have to look into it!
