Smarty's can be used from 98.5 on up. Did you remove a KDP from your 99????

- I must have missed that on their website?

Nope, tabbed it (buried it alive, thus the RIP)....

I added an EZ and started slipping the stock clutch. Had to go to a SB clutch, then did more engine work and now am slipping that one. Need a bigger SB soon. GO ahead and put you aside about $1500 for a new clutch and flywheel as soon as you start.
