So.....Which clutches are working the best? I need a clutch and I want to know which clutches are holding up to 5000 rpm dumps and n2o. Cartek, Mcleod, Star? If possible I would like to reuse my flywheel and just get it resurfaced.
thanx

Re: So.....Which clutches are working the best? Well I'll tell you this...I HAD the REVLOK II in my car for about 3 or 4 weeks and I broke a friction plate on the damn thing Fri. It completely removed itself from the disk. I hope it was a defect, I'm in the process of sending it back now. It worked really well until it broke..4 to 5 grand dumps no prob!

Re: So.....Which clutches are working the best? My cartek has performed flawlessly 5K dumps on slick on the bottle. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: So.....Which clutches are working the best? In three words...Mcleod,Mcleod,Mcleod!!!!! It has to be the smooooothest upgrade available (not the Rev-Lok). BTW, spend the extra $$$$ and get the new billet flywheel, which comes with the Mcleod. Also get the kevlar upgrade for excellent performance.
Pay for PROVEN quality and no more worries.
Later.
BTW, do you read any threads with Mcleod problems?
Just my 2 cents.
Raging Motorsports (forum sponsor) has a great price for the complete set-up.

Re: So.....Which clutches are working the best? I think most of the clutches have all their bugs worked out of them. You just need to have the hydraulics setup properly.
I have the Ram setup BTW.

Re: So.....Which clutches are working the best? What trouble? This frickin clutch is awesome! It does have alot to do with the install and bleeding process though. Mark at Raging MS has done quite a few of these and brings a ton of expertise.

Re: So.....Which clutches are working the best? I have the Ram 401/6130 W/stock resurfaced flywheel. I also added the McLeod MC as well. So far I love it!!!! Holds great and grips excellent......
My total cost was right at $500.....how much was your McLeod Randy??????? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
The McLeod is a good clutch, but in my book a bit overpriced. The Ram holds up to Harlan, so it should be O'tay for my car.
