Re: clutch kit suggestion

I really like my act2600 pp with a south bend clutch kevlar spung disk. It keeps the drivability easy and is super grabby compared to my old full 2600 set up. Also, it is holding a sold 350 at the wheels. Twicks69 on dsmtuners was running this exact set up in his car that was pushing around 500 awhp. but he has now upgraded to a twin disk since he's into the 700's.


here is the pm that he sent me

I ran the South Bend Kevlar sprung disk for 30K+ miles with around 500AWHP running as fast as 11.0 @ 133.

The setup with a fidanza flywheel and a 2600 pressure plate was fantastic. I only stepped up to bigger and better things (quartermaster twin disk with PTT flywheel) because the clutch was starting to get a little worn out, and the horsepower was increasing (GT40R).

When I took the clutch out, there was still a good amount of life left on the disk, and the pressure plate and flywheel were in fantastic condition. No real hot spots, no friction plate warping on the flywheel, etc.

I had well over 200 launches on the disk, over 100 dyno pulls (all over 400awhp), at least 100 1/4 mile passes.

I definitely reccomend it ( I did 2 reviews on their website for this clutch also -- http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/part...ch_Disks//2188 )


I hope that this helps,

Sincerely,

Tim Zimmer

hope that helps
