need clutch ideas
I am currently running a centerforce dual friction clutch. Been on the truck for roughly 5 years. Its now starting to slip on launched and gear change at the strip. Need advice for a heavier clutch. I'm at 400ft/lbs of torque now and will be increasing that soon. What do you all think I should go with next?

Re: need clutch ideas
I've had good results with the OE "SACH'S" clutches on the six's, on my AMC V8 I run a McLeod 10 1/2" "Borg&Beck" with six roller assist.

Re: need clutch ideas
Yea I was over thinking it. My clutch engages at the rop of my pedal throw and I have a bad habbit of resting my left foot on the pedal. Plus when I launched it on the street it was right after going through a large puddle and I have no inspection cover. I have been to the track twice since with no issues and 1.8 60 ft times

Re: need clutch ideas
cool and that's a great 60ft. my auto sucks so im doing a ax-15 2wd swap I will hold 3k-4k and just dump it on the launch so ill find out how fast it wears out. my friends fox body goes through one every other year and we don't even go that much
