How good are these clutches i am building a 383 stroker and it will be a street/ strip car. is there something else i should go with?
Thanks

 

I think the Mcleod Street Twin is the strongest of that line. Many say they like the Spec Stage 3.

 

yeah there is a price difference so i dont know what i am to do.

 

Thats what I've heard, too. I'll most likely be going with a Mcleod when my clutch lets go. It'll be overkill for a little while, but hopefully not too long

 

the Street Twin from McLeod is great clutch but be sure the rest of your driveline (trans, driveshaft, rear) is up to it. the Street Twin doesn't slip....so other parts end up giving...or breaking.

 

Couldn't have said it better myself.. Twin is the best clutch i have owned.. some may say it's a lil rough around town.. but what do you want from the baddest Ltx clutch on the market?

 

i loved mine it took any think i threw at it many launch's at 6900 on a dump and never looked back.....

 

I can't say the same for my former Centerforce..........

 

Bought a McLeod today, look forward to trying it out mid April . Custom driveshaft gets built tomorrow, doing the 1350 ujoint out back mated up to the 12bolt.

 

Spec 4

 

Nice, almost went with the Spec4 myself but came across a decent deal on a new McLeod, heard a lot of good on the Spec though.

 

do you really need to upgrade if you are running a stroker and plan on shifting at high rpms. They make upgrades but they cost more.

 

not sure what you mean on your second question but on the 1st, definitely need a good clutch dude to get all she's got out of it.

 

I agree with Jeff on the McLeod being able to take the sh*t @ 6900. I have dumped mine @ 6000 a few times on slicks & ET streets and it never gave an inch...... Personally I don't think there is a better clutch for the F-body

Look at the Mcloed clutches there are options for differnt disks for differnt Rpm ranges. Maybe i am reading that wrong. Let me know what you guys think and as you can see it is even more money.

 

Ohhhhh ok, yes they have various clutch plate replacements for your particular application, iron core, etc, etc. Sure they can cost more, I mean if your pushing 1000rwhp vs 500 you'd want a better clutch disc in the Mcleod vs the standard.

 

Love hearing these kind of posts, glad I got it, can't wait to do a 4k launch @HRP.

 

should i get the zero balanced fly wheel i will be balancing it with my new rotating assembly.

 

Think they come neutral balanced but not positive, I talked to Brian@LME today and he's going to make sure it's zero, neutral balanced, etc.

 

you can order them in two differnt forms a zero balanced and a regular what did you buy yours for i would buy form the same place you got yours or i will just buy it trom tybrin they have a 10% off deal
