holy rpm batman...hold on for your lives little bearings...haha

very nice setup top end screamers for sure...but stays pretty flat up top ...get a slipper clutch in there now and stop messing around... rob z has done killer things with his...or a textralia my buddy has over 300 6-7k launches on his...single disk feels like stock

Nice to see on a set of 799s...

it should go 134 easy at that weight and power..

what's the goal et?

also the DA was crazy good -1300ft that's awesome...blow some of that my way

 

Thanks Chris,
DA was about -1000 when I got my limited runs in, the goal is bottom tens, anything beyond that is bonus. The last clutch before this one launched hard, but I could not get it to shift over 7k. This one would not hold the power at all. Im done with single discs, soft lok is $2500 so for now thats out, im going with a twin disc most likely, ~1400.

 

good deal man...are you going to get it out again this year...I got motivated again to get my junk repaired before the end of the season...end nov is it...

 

How many miles on that clutch?

 

Yeah, im trying... you still going to atco?



and the clutch was a little over 300 miles...myabe 500 not sure exactly but at least 300.

Soft roll out later 11.0 @ 130 You can hear it slip going into 3rd, as I ease back into it. also slipped 100 ft before the traps in 4th. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMzk_67ADjY

 

What are you using for a water pump? in the pics I couldn't see one on the front of the engine.

 

yeah I might go but the air is going to have to be killer...I will keep and eye on it closer to the date...

 

There is a remote mount meziere pump on the radiator shroud, bottom drivers side. -12 an lines running into it. blue -16 aluminum fitting into the rad.

 

Put the tex 0Z700 clutch in that car you will love it trust me........ and sounds sick

 

Thanks, I would try the tex but im pretty sure it will be close to the monster, which held great, but have you tried shifting it @ 7600? This modified ram just would not hold anything... I think Im going with the mcleod street twin, it's a borg and beck long style PP plate and is light @ ~35lbs with the flywheel... Already spent more than the price of a twin disc in clutches that havent worked.....

 

It's a touch bigger than a t-rex but not much.. tighter lsa.

 

Was the clutch set up right? That thing looks horrible. I'd try a monster but that's my .02

 

been there, done that.

yes, it seemed fine on the street, did some launches and high rpm shifts, it was fine.... as soon as the slicks gripped the track it was done.

 

i ran the street twin and at rpm past 7200 it was junk. The tex has worked great at anything over 7k plus. And i put over 300 7 k hits on mine. But i have stepped up to the mcload slipper well see. Plus light fly wheels suck for a stick.

 

Interesting results - whats the correction factor?

 

very nice.

 

hmm as far as the rpm goes I'll have to check that out...

But I'll never go back to a heavy flywheel.... dropped my 60's from the low 1.5's high 1.4's to the 1.42-1.43 range consistantly.... with a 15lb chrome moly one.

 

My car **** a twin as well. Started slipping bad. It was the mcloud street twin. Had a tex. and it had the typical problems, didn't wanna pwr shift high PRM. I now have a Monster lv 6 with the chromoly flywheel. Flawless thus far. Been the best driving clutch too. I love it. Never shifted it at 7600 tho....
Good luck man.

 

congrats on the results! it is impressive.

sent you a pm.
