Who sells McCloud? How much HP do you have? Are these better than centerforce?

ViperD Which clutch package did you use. Did you use the RPS flywheel too?

I too have an RPS and it has held up quite well with over 60 passes on it so far.

Some folks had issue with RPS earlier on (and their 1st clutch stunk), but this clutch is doing extremely well.

Is any one using the CYN-R-G Flywheel from RPS with a Centerforce clutch? How does this setup/combination sound?

I'm running what Brian is running. Installed by UGR. It is very streetable! After multiple 9 second passes, they're still going strong. Not to grabby and no chatter either. Not much different than stock really. Call Kevin and he'll hook you up.

Sorry I missed the post before!

The clutch feels like a stock clutch on the street. It hooks hard off the line and is extremely drivable. In fact, if I hadn't installed it myself, i'd think it was a stock clutch.

AAAAh....No....25,000 miles on the Viper.

Original clutch burned up learning to launch on ET Streets.

Next one I took out on practicing shifts on the highway....oooooops ...downshift instead of next higher gear....took out clutch and transmission, that was a VERY expensive shift!

The clutch that is in now has had MANY dyno's and MANY passes down the track...nothing is forever.

But I should have said SAME type of clutch since day one.
