Interesting looking clutch. I sorta feel like 25-30 pounds is a really good blend of driveability and rev ripping performance.

The whole reason I started this was you see all kinds of people saying the benefits of a heavy clutch, but I have yet to see anyone say "I went back to a heavier clutch and am much happier with the performance"

SOrta like asking "who here has swapped out their LS and put in a coyote?" nobody does that, and we know they won't.

Not mine but it sure does look nice..
Ace Nex Gen 10 inch here
Weight is 26 lbs. Been 1.2 60ft naturally aspirated by a ls1tech member here

Reminds me of a high end pulling truck clutch. They look kinda similar

Hio- love that really simple solution for the pedal stop. Hope you don't mind me copying that design.
