well today after getting some more wire for the welder to do the heater air intake for the evo swap. the 2600 went out on the talon. I knew the t.b. was going out it was strating to make some noise but what I found when I got the tranny out insted of working on the mirage was this. also the back side tranny bolt broke in side of the tranny so I have to drill it out and retap it also
I have seen so many discs do that. You would think they would make a little better design.

Sucks man, sorry to hear that. This is one of the reasons I advise against ACT products.

And what brand of clutch do you condone?
From what I have seen/experienced, ACT makes a superior product to anyone else for a DSM. Yes, they do break, but not nearly as often as other brands it seems, and with how common ACT products are in DSM's, of course you will see more failures.

That's what I did to my stocker back in the days of the honda. Is this a common problem w/ the ACT's?

Yes.
For DSM's I recomend certain clutches from Clutchmasters, Centerforce, Competition, and Southbend. Competition is a fairly new brand of clutches that is looking VERY promising.

You must have an older disc. I heard they fixed this problem with a revised disc design. I guess it's the price you pay, my clutch is going to PTT today.

ACT for the win.
Its why we switched over to SBC and have had nothing but success.

My disk had 3 springs and 3 rubber pieces, the rubber peices had been completly shredded. It was bad. So i replaced the disk with a stocker, its working fine now, i still have the ACT Pressure Plate on
