I have FNDAZA FW 12/LP, can i use this FW with RAM clutch? and what about the stock FW for RAM clutch?
Thanks in advance

I am not sure that Ram clutch's come in "stages". They have different part #'s for more aggressive disks, and one PP that I know of. I am running the 402 pressure plate, with a 6130 disk and it drives great. I am also using the stock flywheel. This setup will EASILY hold 450-500 rwhp.
Hope this answers your questions <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: RAM clutch...users Wish I could say the same, but have had nothing but problems since I had the VDS (Very Damn 'Spensive) installed.Allway's chattered. They said it would get better when broken in. 1st it wouldn't let go of 1st gear, then not at all--bronze disc melted onto the pp 1st day at the track. They were good enough to send a replacement disc (iron this time) at no charge. But what a biatch to drive in traffic, in or out--no in between, and chatter only got worse.
Hey, it does'nt chatter now though (after 9000 miles about 7000 hwy miles), then again it won't go into reverse, and really stiff getting into 1st. And as a bonus, it slipps like a drunk on ice, so bad it is like havin a stall converter. Other than that I can not think of a better way to spend a grand.
I tried adjusting the master cyl, to no avail, and will start pulling it apart A-F#$%#$-ing-gain to see what now....
I too only heard good things about Ram, and did a lot of research prior to dropping a load into this clutch, at this point it is the worst mistake I have made, mod wise. Even when working--it certainly would grab HARD--it was horrible for daily driving, unless you never are in ANY type of stop and go traffic. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />

Re: RAM clutch...users Fahad, that flywheel should be fine they dont recommend the stock flywheel for the 910 disk, the most aggresive one.
I have the RAM clutch with 910 disk and their steel flywheel(1550). I would recommend the 402PP and 910disk to you. Its good to 500+ rwhp very,very streetable. Go with the 910 disk and you wont be dissappointed.

Re: RAM clutch...users My RAM 6130/402 is great! Sure its more grabby then the stock one, what did you expect? The 6130 disk is NOT to be used with nitrous. Most of the guys that have had fusing problems were because they were spraying or installed incorrectly.
