Default Spec Stage 2 or RAM Powergrip HD

I was wondering wondering which clutch to go with. Either the Spec stage 2 or the RAM Powergrip HD. they are close to the same price but i do not know which one would be better.

If you decide on the spec, get the 3 its only a few bucks more.
I went with the Ram and and I am pleased with it.

im on a ram HD, and i dont think you could even compare a Spec 2 to a ram HD, the Ram is much more built for abuse.

I have a ram HD and after reading this forum I wouldn't use a spec if it was half the price.

ive had a spec 3 and the ram pg hd...RAM ALL THE WAY!! Spec just uses a new oem pressure plate so there isnt any added clamping load, where as the RAM is all new everything, not just the disk. I am curious about the spec 2+ though. Id also consider the ls7 clutch with the ls2 flywheel if your not going with forced induction.

i've had 2-rams and 1-spec and they all failed in under 2,500mi. this was with only 15-20 track passed on all. i was using NOS with the spec,it lasted longer then the rams and took more punishment.
