Simply put guys, it's my job to drive Camaro's & Corvettes 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.
