Default Can u run an aftermarket dist with stock PP?

Like it says can I run a aftermarket clutch disc with a stock pp and flywheel? If they are the same diameter. I know that it wouldn't hold as much power because the stock pp isn't going to have as much clamping force but would there be complications other than that from doing this.

Thanks
Jon

Yes, you can run a different disc with stock PP/flywheel.

I ran a velvet touch 6 puck disk with my ls6 PP. No problems. I've got a backup new 6 puck disk and a PP for $250...brand new if you're interested.

No worries on teh spelling...heck it is pretty well known @ these parts, I spell "the" "teh".

Anyways, obviously make sure teh disc is teh right spline count (hub) for your selected input shaft, and teh right diameter, and will be good to go.
