what clutch would suit me better. twin disk is to much money so what are my options

also car wont be drivin all to much maybe 1k a year, maybe the track twice a year

more the less jus shows and cruises for now

 

You could get away with a Spec Stage 3,but the Mcleod is definitely the way to go

 

If you can't get the ST, the Spec. But the ST is a great clutch.

what about the mcloud single disc

 

If you rarely driver your car then an LT4 clutch/LS1 disc setup will hold up just fine for many years.

 

It really depends n what your looking to spend n the new clutch set up. What rearend do you have ? If it's stock I would stay away from the ST because I've known people who have broke rears with only street tires useing them. I would say the Spec or the LT4/LS1 disc set up like was mentioned would be your best bet.

 

I have a 69 SS with a very stout 355 putting 436 to the ground mated to a Tremec TKO600 w/ Mcleod clutch and I can give it hell all day long with no problems

 

is this the twin disc setup?



i plan on a ford 9inch soon also,

 

anyone know about the mcleod single disk?

 

My son had the single disc Mc Leod clutch and he loved it. Me I run the twin disc and I'm just now replacing it after a year and a half of constant racing. Also Mc Leod will rebuild their clutches for around $300. Think about it, a new flywheel clutch plates, pressure plate, and a new adjustable master cylinder, the price is'nt really that high.

 

i just got my centerforce dual friction clutch a few months ago and its been awsome for me. just south of $600 not sure of prices on Mc Leod's tho

 

there like 1100 for the st

 

I recommend the SPEC stage IV for the price. The hub isn't sprung so you don't have to worry about a spring blowing on you (I blew 2 on 2 stage III discs) and the driveability is just as good as the stage III. Its been holding up to ALOT of abuse the last 2 years. Around 10 - 13,000 miles on it too.

Although having gone through all this it would have been cheaper and smarter to get the Street Twin in the first place! I'am planning on changing this one out to a ST this summer. FWIW my stage III bent my stock driveshaft too, might want to look into a better one. I got a good deal on a LPE 3.5" aluminum one for mine. Sucks when the ds breaks at 110mph breaking your bellhousing, yoke off the rear, and bending my input shaft on the T56. I think I might have to fix that this summer too

 

im dumping so much in this car, there is going to be a aftermarkes ds on there

 

My centerforce seems to be good to about 550hp/600tq off the launch. Ant bigger pills and it slips so bad I can smell it the next day
