I have gone with a Kevlar clutch plate on a twin disc because the organic didn't hold on my 500 rwhp 450 rwtq 97 C5.... ended up being several possible reasons, mainly the clamping force on the pressure plate. So in the name of upgrading even if it failed for a different reason, I went with a Kevlar clutch. It is an extremely light twin disc set up (kevlar and organic) at ~30 lbs including the pressure plate to flywheel.

One thing I noticed the Kevlar didn't have the spring, and indeed it is rated to 850 or 900 ft lb vs the organic with 600 ft lb.

I was already prepared for the chatter at engagement with the Kevlar, but I've been told that will subside somewhat after break in. Reguardless:

What if any other noticeable differences do the hub spring make in the clutch disc?

I presume they are removed for extra strength at some sort of cost to drivability. From my searches it seems to have more of an on/off function rather than a progressive feel, which should be interesting with the light weight of the set up.

Is there more vibration, or noise?

Thanks for any input or experiance from any kevlar clutch users!!!!
