is this jason's clutch?

I don't know, I didn't even look. You have the killer setup, get the killer parts. Why experiment with your own time and money when Jason has already done the homework, and more importantly, figured it out.

Joe, just call George at Mcleod(714-630-2764).

He sells the sintered iron twin disc clutch to Heffner for Chad's car.

This type of clutch was developed by McLeod for John Lingenfelter.

It is about 2K from what I remember==> BUT maybe you should try that ebay clutch...What's $550.00 to a handy guy like yourself to junk the ebay clutch if it does not work vs the chance to get some bad-ass clutch that could work?

The only negative I have to say about the ebay one is remember the RPS POS you are not putting back in your car? I had one of those as well, what a waste of money.....

Anyway, give George @ McLeod a call and he will hook you up! Good luck!

How about the Centerforce centrifugal clutch? POS? Worth $500 to try it? Good for 700-800 TT hp? I figure you might know this Paolo.

I sure hope it's good for more than that because I just bought one from Jason to put in while I've got the tranny out. I know Roe sells them too, and I haven't heard anything negative about them. Although I do remember hearing something about some people removing half of the weights (supposedly had difficulty shifting at high rpm apparently), but Jason said he'd never had anyone with that problem. Not to mention you don't need to rev to 6k with turbos; I think it was more of a roadracing issue.

Robert, I remember destroying 2 Centerforce clutches with 450 RWHP. They are junk in my opinion. But Hennessey and Heffner use the Centerforce clutch in their 800-900 RWHP TT packages. I guess it works fine for them. :thumb:
