Cam in the video had 21* and the cam before it had 28*

I was able to drive it the same. It's does not snap you back or grab aggressively at all IMO.

for the people that read this thread and want to know if there monster flywheel will work with the the mcleod rst/rxt twin disk clutch. i got word from Scoggin Dickey that it will in fact work. It is recommended that since they are not a matched set that you surface the flywheel and balance the pair together before installation.

I have about 3-4k on it now. The ONLY issue I've had is that the floater plate has gotten a little more noisy when you push the pedal in. Brand new there was no noise. It's not loud at all but it is there. I had a friend in Japan with an OS Giken twin that sounded like a Ducati dry with the alum guard. It's absolutely nothing like that.

Oh, I got a little chatter when the second disk started to grab during break-in but after beating on it ALL of the chatter went away.

The benefit to the McLeod RXT and Monster Twin lvl 2 is that you can very easily replace the disk if it's too aggressive for you.

If you can afford the Monster over the McLeod the warranty really is killer.

How about that Mantic clutch that's good to 700hp, seems a couple of our sponsers are pushing it and the price seems to be right. Any input on this one, I have to buy a clutch my Centerforce Dual Friction exploded at WOT from 1 to second on just motor not spray.

I've driven a few RXT clutches in built LS7's, turbo 950rwhp LS3 and love that setup.

Once my Textralia twin disc bites the bullet I'm putting in the McLeod RXT.

Never driven a vehicle with a RXT, but a few people I know love those clutches because of the smooth and stock feel like clutch.

I love my textralia twin disc. I drove it with the stock ceramic discs and it was great. and then I replaced those with some sintered iron discs and it is still 100% streetable. The great thing about the iron discs is that the more you beat on it the stickier they get... So basically they match your driving. It does squeal sometimes, haha, but unless you're a girl that shouldnt be an issue.
