i've been using the ram 980 clutch with great results. i had problems with my past ram 910 clutch,but found out it was not the clutch at all. i had to buy a adj master and do the drillout mod. once i did this i've had no problems at all. 10.8 1/4 times with the front tires off the ground.

what should i try to do to eliminate the clunking noise when shifting into different gears? should i try getting a new slave? or try doing the drill mod(not sure what this is)? please post pics if you have any....

thanks in advance

Centerforce (Dual Friction)- is a great clutch and engages better than others. $500
Spec- Heard lots of great things, but never road in a car that engeges like centerforce.

spec stg 3 is nastyness... that clunking noise could be a throwout bearing...is it only when you shift or is it when you take off from first gear??
