As I inch closer and closer to getting my supercharger shipped and installed I have a couple questions. I'm currently running an LS7 clutch on my car. How well will that clutch hold up? If not well enough which clutch would you guys recommend? Thanks

That should hold up just fine. You've already got it in the car. Might as well give it a test. If it didn't hold up for any reason, you're not going to destroy it and render it useless. It'll slip, you'll see your RPM jump and then you spend the money. If it works out (which I believe it will), you will have saved a ton of money. .

I went with an RPS twin disc carbon and it's lasted for two and a half years under some pretty conditions. My pilot bearing went out about 9 months ago so I also added a Tick Remote Bleeder...

Love my single disk ACT. GM9 HDSS kit. Holding for over a year so far so good at 600wheel. SFI rated with a 750 TQ Capacity.

I have a mantic er2. Great clutch. Would hold 600 no problem

I love my Mcleod RST, I'll never do a puck style clutch again. Engagement so smooth I can get the car moving without giving it gas

another thumbs up for the RST......I'm at 600rwhp and this thing is smoother than stock and handles everything

Give ECS a call. There is a reason why one of, if not the top, corvette shop uses Mantic. Plus there customer service is excellent. All of this from personal experience.

Ya that LS7 won't take the abuse. Check out the LT1-S rated at 700 RWHP and will drive like a stock clutch. Give us a shout and we can get you a good deal.

DOUG @ ECS

Thank you!

I run a Mantic twin in my car. I love it, I currently DD the car everyday and blast down the highway or track on the weekends when I am off. Car holds power great, and hasn't slipped once.

402 W/YSI and 2.7" pulley(soon to be 2.6").

How are the manners of this clutch in traffic and from a stop in DDing? Smooth all around? Thanks!

Proace4

Honestly pretty good. When it was over 100* it got a little grabby, but it's still very manageable. I keep the clutch fluid clean and it keeps the Pedal and driveability very very good IMO.

Nice! Thanks for the response... Pretty impressive these clutches that hold power can have almost stock manners Hope to see this beast some day. Stay cool

No problem man. I've been up there a couple times for either a KC2K or mustang f-body event, and the occassional weekend get away when the gf needs something from the plaza or legends lol.

Here is what we recommend for different levels of power.

h/c car's an LS7 is fine for 99% of the people out there, if you want to really start drag racing a lot step up to something a little better.

500-650 rwhp I would do the Mantic single disc

650-800 I would do the Mcleod RST

800-1000 go for the Mcleod RXT

1000+ either the RPS triple or Mcleod Street twin.

We would be happy to go over all the options over the phone, pm, or email and run some unbeatable pricing on mcleod units.

I went with the RXT even though I'm not [yet] making power in that range, and to borrow a quote from Joe, "it laughs in my face no matter what I throw at it". Very near stock feel, and I've got headroom to grow.

PS Joe sold it to me and installed it. If you're local, he'll treat your car like it's his own if you need work done.

i'm at 680/600 on my setup and I'm running the Textralia OZ700 with HD pressure plate. Supposed to be good for 800 ft lbs. I have a Tick M/C and it makes for a heavy pedal. I plan to go with the Mcleod twin when this one is done.
