I have a 6 speed manual now and wondering if i should spend the money for a good clutch or put it towards an auto

I have the Street Slayer triple and don't like it very much. It's to "touchy" and doesn't seem streetable to me.

I have McCleod street twin (not the RXT) rated to 1500hp. It feels only slightly stiffer than stock to me. I have no complaints with it so far.

Is the LT1-SC a twin? single?

Stock pedal effort and will hold 1000 rwhp in a heavy 5th Gen car.

Thanks for the PM!

Is anyone using the RPS triple carbon disc? My Mantic 9000 is showing wear and probably wont make it through this season.

Depends on your goals...

Is it a 1-off setup? The RXT twin is only rated to 1000hp...

It's a twin disc setup.

Actually, it's a modified version of what's in the ZL1 - modified in a sense that it has excellent high rpm release characteristics, better plate load, and higher capacities with our frictions. We removed the dual mass flywheel and it's a fantastic setup!

The LT1-xx clutches are quickly becoming the "favorite" in the 5th Gen community, those who have ran them love them!

LOL!

FYI guys, we just had a guy make 980 rwhp on a single disc last night.

RPS triple carbon = Street Slayer triple carbon

Yah I have it. For the money it doesn't feel or operate anything close to stock. It's not smooth at all. It just slips a little as you let the clutch out then all of the sudden it grabs. Either the car dies out or the car launches like a bat outta hell. I need to get ahold of Hendrix and find out if that normal for the triple.

No, it isn't an RXT. It's an upgraded version of the 1200hp street twin.

Nice! So the 10.5" twin that you're have is a ceramic friction version and not organic like what's posted in your link which is rated to their 1200 flywheel hp?

McLeod rates things at the flywheel... I rate clutches at the tire. That's where the 1000hp came from in case there is any confusion.
