The holding power is great,But it does not like to be slipped..With bolt ons theres no need to slip the clutch because you haven't moved the the torque of engine from low to higher in the curve as you do with a cam..

I would consider a cam change a "bolt on".

If the clutch is squealing it's because of being glazed excessively. This is caused by a couple of things, either fluid contamination or driver error. I daily drive a GTO with a heads/cam package and stock gears, the car has terrible bottom end power and my clutch doesn't chatter or squeal, and it's got 100+ track passes and over 30k miles on it.

If your clutch is chattering I'd look into it, call me and I'll be glad to go over a few things. We've sold literally thousands of these, there is a reason the noise is there.

O.P. the Level 3 will take some incredible abuse, it will drive great considering the power level it will hold and the pedal effort should be roughly 8% stiffer than stock, most say it feels the same. If the pedal is stiffer than that take a look at the hydraulics of the car, or, just give us a call and we'll get you taken care of.

I will call you monday..I put it in around march of 2011 and has about 6k on it..Started making the squealing noise right after break in..It's like you get to the last bit of pedal travel before it completely engauges and it makes the squealing noise..
