Default Which monster clutch

Which one would you guys go with. Currently have the stock clutch. 75,000 miles. Hydraulics were changed not long ago. Car is cam and bolt ons. Put down 380hp 373 tq in eps dyno. I do plan to put a small shot of nitrous on the car. I do drive it a lot. Lots of 2.5 hr trips one way and back in the same day. Sometimes this happens every two weeks. When it's real hot outside I take my truck because the ac works. Lol. Lookin at the level 1 - 3. Will the 3 be ok with these long trips or should I roll with the 1 or 2?

Level 2 is all you will need lasts quite a while too. look into a Tick Master Cylinder and a Tick SpeedBleeder too.. the MC fixes the f-body's limp pedal problem at high RPM and the speed bleeder makes flushing and bleeding the clutch extremely easy to do

Thanks guys. The tick mc is gonna have to wait a lil while as I'm already over budget on the clutch. I could always change that later. I think I will go with the level 2.

I plan to throw a 125-150 shot at mine after I get it installed and save some more coin to get back to the tuner. I made a few changes and it needs a lil touch up.

It comes with a new pilot bearing. You can either opt to get the new slave cylinder or not. Do get the new GM flywheel and pressure plate bolts. Stick with the regular steel flywheel.

Thanks.


Quick question. About how long does it take for this item to ship? I'm planing to be out of town and just don't wanna go until I know when this is coming. Hate leaveing stuff like this on the porch for to long. Lol. No biggie. Can't wait to get it in the car. Needs it bad

Just got this in today. Everything looks good. Can't wait to get it in the car. Unfortunately I'm gonna have to hold out till Friday and go ahead and replace the slave again as well even though the one that's in it isent that old. I don't wanna have any issues with it. So Friday I'm gonna pick one up and a set of bolts then sometime next week ill get it in their. Ill let everyone know how it goes and my thoughts towards it.
