Yeah I know, they are offering prebuilt act kits, or a southbend clutch disc with an act pp. Just letting you know WHERE they got that disc from :).
Oh the disc! Sorry, didn't catch that. So SBC is making the discs for them, eh? No I didn't know that. Interesting.

ACT 2100 gives almost stock pedal feel and I've seen guys get into the 11's on a 2100. Easier on the tranny too.
In my opinion, you always want the weakest point in your engine-tranny-clutch to be the clutch - much easier and cheaper to fix.

I think the feramic material isn't liking the aluminum flywheels in some instances.

Yes im 90% certain of that. I came up with the idea of a 'mix and match' last season with sbc on johns talon, well I came up with it earlier, just didn't have anyone to test it on. HPF could have another clutch disc supplier, just I know that:
1) they are an act dealer
2) they are an SBC dealer
Both of which we are as well, and I know I've combined them before, why wouldn't they? lol.

I had a SBC DXD with Feramic disk and I liked it alot, lower than stock pedal pressure and it was really grabby. I did worry about the seizing problem but I put a few thousand on it before I sold it and never had a problem.

You have a 2900? How does the pedal pressure feel on that one :D. I had the 2100 for my second clutch and that one was nice. Only problem with that was that I had to slip it a bit more than the 2600 I have now (good thing? maybe. maybe not). I also got my best 0-60ft on the 2100 but the 2600 is way stronger and never slips unless I make it. Almost every passenger I have in my car bobs their head when I shift...kinda makes me feel like a crappy shifter :(...haha

Ok so i have decided that i would want to go with a 2600 instead of a 2100 but the thing is that do i have to get a whole new clutch kit or can i just get teh pressure plate?

You could just buy the pressure plate, but odds are the disc has some wear on it, might as well replace that as well (and machine the flywheel).

Should of listened to me in the first place man. I told you not to get the 2900. 2600 is killer enough on daily driving :D. But anyways it looks like you're down another 300+ dollars added to everything else you still owe money on if you decide to buy a new clutch :P. Word of advice from your friend, don't put yourself into deeper debt just yet if you plan to attend WYOTECH *har* *har*.
