The Street Twin is BRUTALChris 96 WS6 07-29-2005, 10:12 PM Such a narrow range of slippage....it even chatters in reverse, LOL. badjuju342 07-30-2005, 07:55 AM I bought the Aussie clutch , still haven't installed or the motor /tranny yet but from the guys who have , it supposedly has better street manners. contraststriker 08-01-2005, 01:10 PM Such a narrow range of slippage....it even chatters in reverse, LOL. My spec 3 chatters in reverse too, but hey! it grips! Chris 96 WS6 08-01-2005, 01:15 PM It shakes the whole car backing out from the driveway, LOL. Its definitely a lot of clutch. Not for the faint of heart or left leg. Turo 08-02-2005, 10:16 AM I bought the Aussie clutch , still haven't installed or the motor /tranny yet but from the guys who have , it supposedly has better street manners. I want one, but damn its pricey. Most likely worth it, but I don't have the cash. badjuju342 08-02-2005, 03:58 PM It is pricey but you get quite a bit for those$$$$ . Flywheel , throwout bearing , clutch pressure plate , install tool . The entire assembly is balanced and matched , too. NICETRY 08-02-2005, 05:06 PM I ran the RAM 6130 disc, and 402 pressure plate in my SS, along with a resurfaced flywheel, and a Mcleod Billet Adj. Master Cyl. with the drill mods, and an updated GM slave. Although that set-up was very agressive, it still lasted over 70K miles, and was holding just as strong when I sold it, at the power it was making, as it was when I first installed it, with nothing more than bolt-ons. Needless to say, my left calf muscle looks pretty damn good!! :D Vendetta 08-02-2005, 06:07 PM hahaha, my friend has a 4.6 stang with a hard ass clutch in it. Robbie-87TR 08-02-2005, 08:45 PM Had the Center Force Dual friction in it before I sold it...talk about overkill for a street car... :spam: C Murda 08-04-2005, 01:14 AM which is better the Mcleod twin disk or a spec 4? Fenster 08-04-2005, 08:03 AM Quit ya whining Chris!!! Do I need to come show you how to drive that car!!! LOL... Its a tough clutch, but definately the best on the LT1 cars. I like it... Although I have driven 4 different cars w/ that clutch... too bad none mine!!! LOL Chris 96 WS6 08-04-2005, 08:07 AM Quit ya whining Chris!!! Do I need to come show you how to drive that car!!! LOL... Its a tough clutch, but definately the best on the LT1 cars. I like it... Although I have driven 4 different cars w/ that clutch... too bad none mine!!! LOL LOL, automatic guys....:rolleyes: snakeoilperformance 08-17-2005, 09:28 PM what rear ya goin in there, and gears?? how soon before the 9 inch, ya might need it with that clutch!! ill be finding out soon. i have an 8.5 10 bolt and im puting in 4.56 with an eaton posi, moser axles, welded tubes and a girdle. Chris 96 WS6 08-17-2005, 09:30 PM The 10 bolt has already been hurt at the track...3.73s in there now. All the 9 inch stuff is here, I just have to set the gears up and then install the assembly. 5 launches in one day on Nittos and the 10 bolt started howling like mad...my first time to the track with the M6 too. Captain Bob 08-17-2005, 11:01 PM Chris, it must be an lt1 thing. my ls1 is very kind. Did you ever drive it? baddogz28 08-17-2005, 11:03 PM which is better the Mcleod twin disk or a spec 4? I think that Specs are junk. I was at a certain high-profile LS1 speed shop a couple weeks ago that will remain unnamed... I found it interesting that the sales manager for the shop was on the phone with spec about a customer's car when I was there. It was certainly NOT complimentary. McLeod is one of the best clutches available if you can afford it, along with the Textralia and Exedy pieces. :cool: Capt. Insaino 08-17-2005, 11:10 PM I have the Textrailia, and its amazing. The street manners are great, and it seems to handle the power I throw at it. Jaberwaki 08-21-2005, 07:15 PM after a few 6000 rpm clutch dumps it wont chatter nearly as much.... think of clutches like your friends ... they all make a bunch of noise till you slap em around a bit.... :lol: note ...i am just playing i dont slap all my friends around... just the ones i really like :P Fastbird 08-22-2005, 07:20 AM McLeod owns all. Spec is crap. :D My ST doesn't chatter at all. It did for maybe 200 miles, and that was it. Buttery smooth and grips like a mofo. My ONLY complaints are the tiny slippage zone and the heavy pedal. But hey, that's part of the trade off. | |
