Need a GOOD Clutch
Long story short the stocker doesn't like nitrous punishment
IDK who i should go with...Ram, Hays, Spec, Mcleod, Centerforce???? I'd like to keep it under $350 for a kit. It has to hold 150+hp of nitrous ontop of what the baby 305 has.
Thanks ALOT guys!!
Edit: 90% sure i'm goin with a McLeod http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MCL-75225/

Re: Need a GOOD Clutch
Many people have problems with the small weights sticking on the centerforce clutches, my Trans Am had that issue.
I've ran a RAM Power Grip and the Power Grip HD on my IROC. The HD was pretty grabby but always held up. The standard Power Grip works well too and has a more stock feel and easier engagement. I'm not sure the non-HD would hold my 383 on drag slicks, but I haven't tried it yet.
A friend of mine has had great luck with Hays clutches as well.
