Right now Im building my chassis and driveline on my ws6. I plan on running full bolt-ons for awhile. Currently Im planning on sending my t-56 to rpm for their stage 5 build, I want to do the clutch while Im in there. I do plan on doing h/c/i in the future but thats a while fown the road. Hoping for 450-480 whp. Im looking at the monster stage 2 clutch. Will this be too much clutch for my bolt-ons car? I daily drive it currently willing to say around 350whp. Will using this clutch be ok until I do my heads and cam swap?

Would a monster stage 1 or ls7 clutch be a better option?

 

I'd personally stay away from an LS7 unless your on a tight budget. I can't speak for monster but I have a TDP stage 2 and it's definitely not too much clutch. Feels very close to stock but with a slightly heaver pedal. I think the feel really changes when you go to a 'puck' setup.

 

IMO you will be fine. OVER KILL is a spec. 5 on a bolt on car again IMO

 

I don't mind a heavy pedal I'm a young guy I can handle a heavy clutch lol. I'm more worried about possible over kill that could damage the drive train.

 

+1

you will be fine, after all you want to leave some room for future mods.

 

I am pretty sure the Stage 5 reference was relative to the transmission build...not the clutch. That being said I am sure you would be happy with one of our offerings too! Take a look at the link below, the 2 or 2+ would be a great option. Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks!

That was the plan. I plan on having bolt ons until my drivetrain is sound then doing a h/c/i swap hoping for 450-480 at the wheels.

 

I dd my bolt on monster lvl 3 car. Drives great and handles 6k launchex like a champ. Currently have 25k on it so u should be fine.

 

When you say TDP clutch, are you talking about the diamond clutch?

 

^^ Yup.

 

Ok. I have the same clutch on a pretty much stock 5.3/t56 Colorado. Very easy to dd.

 

stage 2 is not an overkill but I would look at Diamond aswell.

 

Level 2 Monster will suit your needs perfectly, will drive literally like stock, and is designed to be abused. We've got cars running high-10's with these and no issues.
