Default Ram CLutch is in :)

I purchased the 6130 disck and 402 pressure plate, Rams adjustable Master cylinder,drill mod and the updated slave cylinder, new pilot bearing, resurfaced my flywheel and new 1le tranny mount.

After all Said and done My stock clutch has 34K miles on it, nitrous use and 6k dumps on Bfg drag radials and It didnt start slipping till last wekeend. SO I wanted a BAd *** Clutch so I chose Ram.

This new Ram Grabs Hard! There is chatter if you dont give it enough gas on take off but I have overcome the chatter by giving it about 1700 rpms and lightly letting out and it grabs and goes forward. I will get use to it after awhile but So far so good. I love this clutch <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0"> I HAve about 350 rwhp or a bit better on bolt ons and I think this clutch will last for a long time. Planning on some 6k dumps on bfg's, I will keep everyone Updated. Very Nice clutch. Maybe now I can do this <img src="graemlins/formula.gif" border="0" alt="[Pontiac]" /> <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
This clutch to me is very streetable.

Excellent. I'm going for the 980 disk. Let's hear more after you get some miles on it and beat on it for a while on the ride home! <img src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" border="0" alt="[judgement]" />

Yeah, mine chatters a tad, I mostly leave around 1200. Once in a while I get a chatter free takeoff, with time I'll get it down.

I like mine too.. felt a huge difference as soon as I got in the car. Much more direct, less slop, not as vague. Shoulda been an OE option.

You will not be disappointed w/ the holding power of the setup

I'm on the second one right now. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">

Granted, i average about 10k miles from a clutch reguardless of the brand. Part of having too much power i guess <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0"> I never had it slip once, even when worn.

I broke mine in this week. 30 miles driving around my town...105 miles to the track and then 5500rpm dumps!!!!! This joker HOLDS but still feels like stock with a tiny bit of chatter. Nothing that bothers me tho.
