Smile Rebuild RAM VDS or new SPEC 3 +

Got the cash flow just wondering what you guys think. I know rebuilding it is cheaper. I dont really care how long my car is down, I just want a better clutch that will hold. Also I might try and do this myself some local La porte guys with fbods offered to help. I need to learn a thing or two

If you are not worried about $$$$ get a Tex clutch. If you dont want another ram and want to go with a spec get the spec3+F ITs around 500-600 i believe.

The spec 3+ is an excellent clutch....I havent had a lick of trouble with mine and you cant beat the combination of holding power and drivibility....at least with a single disk clutch.

I have heard alot of bad things of spec clutch's going out too soon. So I got a Ram HD and have had no problems with it so far. BTW my buddies stock LT1 blew a spec3 after 1 month.

Sorta. There is only the spec 3 and spec 3+(or spec with the F option)....

The normal spec 3 is not as good of clutch as the 3+...not even close in my opinion.
