So my clutch is beat but I can warranty it. The clutch that is in there however is a no name. I was thinking about saying screw the freebie and do it right. From what I understand the ACT is the best clutch and will last longer then the piece of **** that is in there.



So the question is, who sells it for the best price?

Also anyone who has this clutch feel free to give me your opinion.





Thanks

Mike

A friend of mine had the ACT street/strip clutch, and it was pretty good.

You may want to check out www.shaneracing.com; we used the ACT in my buddy's '91 T2...the grip was good, but the engaging spot was a little high for my liking(but I'm sure it can be adjusting). I went w/ a centerforce because that is what my buddy's '94 cobra w/ 412RWHP is using and man...that thing SMACKS when you let it go

I know I am not running high hp #'s yet, but I want something that will hold up to abuse, and the 6000 lauches occasionally. The clutch i have in it was made for grandma's. I want it to grab hard but it is my daily driver. Thanks everyone for your advice. I checked out SR and they have the clutch for like $390. I am going to see if i can get it locally cause since I work at a shop I get a nice discount. I am still shopping though........

Corksport has a pretty good deal on Clutchnet clutches. They're very good.

T&R uses Clutchnet exclusively, and they've had good success with them.
