So I went ahead and ordered a SPEC stage 1 clutch last night. With my dual mass flywheel in good shape still, I'm going to stick with that and eliminate the potential rattle noise of a lwfw. I also purchased the Rear Main Seal and LN engineering's IMS retrofit kit(that got expensive quick) Not to mention the tool kit for $350...
I found out that my IMS Bearing is a dual row IMS. Is this better than the single row IMS?

Is there anything else that anyone would recommend changing/replacing while the tranny is off?
There are tons of very helpful people here. The help you get depends a little on your attitude.

Maybe if you had introduced yourself before ragging on people here your responses would have been a little different

as far as the IMSB, don't be lazy, do a search, there are lots of threads on that subject
