Jegs has ram clutches and PP heavy duty which it says is good for 400hp are these good clutches? they are only 350 for the clutch and PP has anyone used them or have anything good or bad to say about them? I am doing heads and cam this summer so i need a decent clutch.

 

So far so good!! I have about 1000 or so miles on it and no problems yet. Not a bad deal for the money

 

i figure that or the SLP and the ram is rated at more hp so i figured if it was good i would go with it.

 

I hear most people who have them like them. The only thing is people tend to drive them harder which just cause it grabs harder now, doenst mean it always will,

 

I posted a similar thread before and got many bad reponses for the RAM heavy duty clutch. I figured screw it and I bought a McLeod Street Twin. It is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. Yes, it is expensive, but as a wise board member told me "Have you ever seen any bad threads about the McLeod" I'll see if I can find that thread.

 

mcleod street twin =

 

I think the main drawbacks are: cost and the fact that more than 1 or 2 people started breaking output shafts and such due to the hard hitting nature of the street twin.

There was a post on the f-body mailing list on clutches. What I read was we have a unique situation in that only one pressure plate works for us. CF adds the weights to it but it's still the same pressure plate. The only thing changing manf to manf is the clutch disc and disc material.

So getting a McLeod or RAM, you're theoritically getting the same pressure plate, just different disc configuration/material.
