Heres my review of the stage 2 I recently pulled out. I couldnt be happier with the clutch and the tick master cylinder/oem slave.

Im about to install the stage 3 that you linked and expect nothing but good things.

Monster does NOT make junk. At all.

I hated the streetability of the Monster Stage 3. 6 puck single discs can eat a bag of dicks.

In the past they had been known for making junk. Seems they have gotten those issues fixed

I was not a fan of the stage 3 either. Will never have another puck clutch.

Yea I just upgraded from the stage 2 to the stage 3 monster. Boy I really miss that stage 2 lol. Stage 3 really takes some getting used to. But it is 100% driveable and really takes the power like a champ. That stage 2 was just so freakin good it’s hard to go to anything else.

Adding a 200 shot will require a clutch that can hold around 800ftlbs, not going to be street friendly unless you go dual disc.

OP, a single disc clutch with a puc type disc capable (read maybe not) of holding that kind of power will sacrifice streetability (read chatter bad)

Go with a twin disc clutch like a McLeod
