Introducing Mantic Clutches - Read Inside For Info!

[Sales @ ECS]

Clutches... The age old LSx question. I want a clutch that will drive like stock, hold ridiculous power, & be consistent! For years, we have been tangled with the search for the perfect clutches. We have sacrificed drivability for the ability to hold more power. We've dealt with on/off switch style clutches to be consistent at the drag strip, but, makes you wish you owned an automatic when you get stuck in traffic.

Well folks, Mantic Clutches knew these issues too, and as a leader in the OE market for 30+ years & a stronghold in the performance market (Especially in Australia/NZ) they have developed a great series of LSx specific clutches.

Mantic offers a few different clutch kits for our LSx vehicles! First lets take a look at the ER2.

------------------------------------------------------

Mantic ER2 Groove Design Single Disc Clutch Kit

Cover Assemblies with the ER2 Groove Design feature have a unique groove pattern CNC machined on the friction face of the Pressure Plate. The groove has been specifically designed to increase the Mean Effective Radius of the pressure plate and assist in heat removal. The increase in the Mean Effective Radius of the Cover Assembly gives an increase in Torque Capacity by up to 8%. Mean Effective Radius is directly proportional to Torque capacity.

By adding the groove to the Pressure Plate, the inside radius of the friction face has effectively been increased. The first 5/16 inches of the pressure plate has all but been removed and added to this, there is progressively less material removed as the radius increases. The net effect of this is to move the effective inside radius further out. When comparing the Mean Effective Radius (Rm) of the ER2 version to the non ER2 version you can see the ER2 version is further out. This increases the Torque Capacity of the clutch. Torque Capacity is directly related to Rm.

------------------------------------------------------

Mantic 9000 Series Twin Disc Clutch Kit
Mantic 9000 series clutches are twin disc, 9” (225mm) diameter modular clutches that are designed for high performance cars or track use.

Mantic 9000 series are low MOI (Moment of Inertia) twin disc clutches that offer a level of performance not only superior to a single disc unit, but also allow you to select options that best suit you.All 9000 SERIES are made with premium quality materials designed to perform and last the distance.

The key to the 9000 SERIES is the street drivability of the Sprung Street Cerametallic discs. These suit high performance engines and enthusiastic driving styles, while allowing excellent drivability when needed. Low pedal effort is another bonus from the 9000 SERIES.

------------------------------------------------------

We have been working with Mantic now for a while, R&D'ing their clutches in all sorts of applications before we brought these clutches direct to you guys! We have tested in the following applications:

- Mantic Street Twin Disc Clutch Kit: 2009 Z06 RHS 427ci YSi 1080+rhwp, 2004 GTO Magnacharger 600+rwhp, 2007 Z06 402ci Novi 2200 850+rwhp

- Mantic ER2 Single Disc Clutch Kit: ECS Shawn's personal 2005 GTO Magnacharged Heads/Cam 590+rwtq/hp, 2001 Z06 Heads/Cam 490rwhp, 2000 Z06 Cam/FAST 440rwhp

------------------------------------------------------

So now you have heard all the specifications, know that it will hold the power consistently & across the board in numerous high HP applications, but at this point you're assuming the thing is an on/off switch that will kill your leg in traffic! NOPE! The 9000 Twin & ER2 clutches feel like factory LS7 clutch kits. A little increased pedal pressure over a LS1/2/6 factory clutch. The drivability is great, very driver friendly.

So... Have we accomplished our three goals for the best clutch for your LSx vehicle? Let's review:

- Drives Like Stock? YES

- Holds Ridiculous Power? YES

- Consistent? YES.

Simply put guys, it's my job to drive Corvettes & Camaro's all day, I have driven and raced probably every single clutch available for LS engines, and these clutches trump all in my personal opinion.
Not because we sell them, we can promote/sell any clutch manufacturer we please, but because these clutches are the best engineered clutches I have ever seen for our applications, with the best pedal feel I have ever felt period!

Most clutches out there now are OEM pressure plates with a changed disc that's painted a vibrant color to make you think your getting a performance part. They are often not even dowl pinned, and usually balanced on a tire type of balancer! On top of that, they are just drilled threw the pressure plate for the balancing. The Mantic clutches are a true performance product, each one is dyno tested on a clutch specific dyno to ensure each clutch is up to spec! Each component is individually balanced on an actual clutch balancer, so you wont see things like marker lines where the assembly has to meet to keep it balanced.

The disengagement is fantastic, the pedal feels just like stock, yet it can hold crazy power. We have used the twins in 1000RWHP applications now, and you would seriously think the car had a stock clutch in it. There's no chatter, and the twins have wafer type springs between the plates to keep them from rattling at idle, they really are like an OEM high HP clutch.

Drag racers can get the slip necessary for a great 60' without the drive train damaging "on/off switch" type of engagement that comes with many high HP clutches. Street guys, it's like stock, what else can I say?

Road racers, the high RPM disengagement is awesome! Some clutches out there offer great off the line response, but the high RPM disengagement lacks. Gear changes will grind or be tougher a bit because the discs are slights rubbing each other which causes unnecessary wear to the trans, or at least slower shifts. None of that with these clutches.

Guys that know me here have heard me say many times (sorry for being so blunt, but it's seriously what I always say) "all clutches suck, pick which one sucks less for your application". These are the first clutches that I have been repeatedly overwhelmingly happy with all around.

Mantic and Monster are my top two.

[walhan_qtr]

Thanks
