im about ready to throw a napa clutch in it. boltons isnt enough to justify a clutch thatll even clutch your nuts on a launch. plus im finishing wrapping up my boltons so itll have to be a budget clutch

maybe a zoom clutch...

Was this the 11" DF or the 12" DF?? I heard that they were really having trouble with the 11" but I put a 12" in mine and it held really well... I'm glad that I don't have to worry about clutches anymore...
