I've been saving up some cash for a little and trying to pick out a clutch. I think i'm gonna go with the RAM Powergrip but i just wanted to get some opinions from anyone that has or has had this clutch. Thanks

How much is that clutch? I think for about 150.00 more you can get a spec 3+ that will hold alot more power than that Ram powergrip. Room to grow.

It's a little over $400 from summit. How much do you think the Powergrip can hold? i'm not putting much more than stock down now but I plan on many upgrades in the future.

In short, my answer is NO.

They could have changed them since I had mine. Mine chattered like crazy on take offs. It was either all or nothing.

If you do get one, make sure it's not Kevlar. I think this is what made mine so annoying. I put a stock Valeo clutch in off of ebay and its perfect.

It does say that "slight chatter may occur on takeoff" but we all know how that is.

I think the Stage 3+ is 650 from Thunderracing.com. You don't need it but, it is suppose to have great street manners with minimum chatter and excellent clamping power. I think 800ft. lbs. I wish I had bought that before I bought the Ram Clutch. It wasn't that great of a clutch to me.

I loved the Powergrip I had. Was pushing 400 rwhp and launching on drag radials at 5000+ and it held no prob. Drove just like stock around town.

$650 is a little more than im willing to throw down. I want some gears as well so id rather spend the extra on them. thanks for you opinion though.

Why are you getting a clutch made for heads and cam? That your plan or what? BTW tsp sells the powergrip http://www.texas-speed.com/shop/cate...MID=2&catid=59 free shipping, no taxes since you live in PA. I have a ram clutch and i like it, drives like stock and they hold good power.

Yeah heads and cam are in my plans but just a long way away. I'm lookin for a clutch that can handle what i have and then some. I dont want to buy a stock replacement and have it crap out on me.

That makes good sense, make sure you change the pilot bearing, rear main seal and get the flywheel resurfaced while you're in there.

Thats the plan. Do it right the first time.
