Default Ordering Monster Level 3......

Hey guys, haven't posted in a while, we have been swamped with work and family issues.

The APS TT kit came in, but I am moving to Houston, Texas for a job opportunity, so I am going to have to drive the T/A for a bit, until I can get a daily driver.

I spoke with Mike Norris the other day and am really sold on this Monster Clutch, so I am going to give it a shot. Mike is going to install it for me, along with a new master, slave and bleeder. The stock clutch is shot with 65K on the clock, so it will be a good mod even without the turbo's.....

When I do install the APS kit, it will be on the stock block, so I won't be going over 5 psi of boost anyway, so the Level 3 should do fine. If I ever want more boost, we are going to have to build a forged internal, iron block anyway, and this will be down the road quite a ways.

Good to be posting again, as usual I look forward to your comments and hope you will be along for the ride!!

PS - I am going to really miss Mike at Norris Motorsports, I hope that I can find a good shop out in Houston.

We appreciate the order!

I will tell all you other guys that our pricing from either factory direct or any of my dealers will be the same, there are no "deals" unless we announce them. We do this to protect our dealer network and to help the clutch market from other "******" out there.

The only advice I can give is this;
  • Be cautious of who you buy from, Ebay is not always your friend.
  • Make damn sure you get a good warranty from a company that will stand behind their product.
  • You get what you pay for.
  • Be cautious of some companies telling you that their stuff is the same as everyone else's, in most cases this is false!
  • Research, research, research!!!!!

Good luck out there! Remember, if you ever have any questions about any clutches (mine or not) I'll help you out to the best of my abilities. If I can't answer it I've got two engineering firms that will.
