spec 3 took a dump tonight.....
after 8 months and only 9k miles.....total of 8 track passes "OFF" the juice mind you....half dozen times i raced on the juice from rolls on the street. my car is no where near the 680 hp rating that spec claims. i dunno if id trust putting another spec back in....or even if spec is gonna step up to the plate and do something for me. this extremely sucks!!!!!!
who has recommendations on some clutches?? cause if spec dont step up...im not doin another spec!!

my SPEC 3 went out because i launched the springs out of the disk. i called SPEC and we made a deal for me to send in my old clutch and they would send me a SPEC 4 if i paid the diffrence. so right now i'm waiting for my SPEC 4 which hopefully will handle the powa

Same thing here with my spec 3 on sat. night. Launched at about 4K and it was stuck, would not go into second or any gear, also had to drive home without the clutch (only about 10 miles for me). Tore it apart and the disc was fused to the flywheel. This is a spec 3F that I just installed over winter with less than 1000 miles on it and 500 of break in miles. This is my second spec 3, I sent the first one back because it never quit chattering and it looked terrible after only 3000 miles. They upgraded me to the 3F and resurfaced fly and PP. Not sure if its even worth trying to send in and maybe go to a 4 or go with the aussie clutch.

Same thing happened to me! I only have 5000kms on it, but I do have 50+ passes on it with a ARE St 3 H/C and BFG DR's.
I have a new 412 LS2 stroker going in the next couple weeks so I decided to step up to a McLoed Street Twin. It seemd like a decent deal, $1200 for a twin disk clutch, billet flywheel and adj. master. Plus it is rated at 1000hp. I'm hoping this should hold my litttle NA combo.
Texeralia was my 2nd choice, though it is not as proven and not much cheaper. IMO
