Mantic is a branch of an enormous OEM clutch manufacturer, so they have a resources behind them that I have never seen in the aftermarket. This is what I contribute the consistency of each clutch too.

From what I've seen so far it looks like Mantic is in my future. About to deploy in a few, but plan to replace the clutch on mine due to the inconsistencies when abused at the track. The big question would it be single or dual. I want the job to be done once. I doubt my car will ever see more than 550rwhp though. I want to be able to slip it and not turn the rear end to pieces. I may upgrade the rear end too at the same time.

I'd recommend our new LT1-S street twin as it'll have factory engagement/pedal feel and longevity being it's the only twin that has a pressure plate that can compensate for the increased wear from double the friction points and can take a beating, don't hesitate if you have any questions about a Monster!
I just don't see how an oem clutch can be up to that.

I really appreciate you offer, but I want a clutch kit that is/was engineered for racing purposes from the beginning. Like I said, I want a clutch kit to be able to withstand all the punishment I throw at it and never ever give me issues. I may not make a ton of power but when I go to the track I'll give them hell.
I just don't see how an oem clutch can be up to that.

I would recommend the 9000 series twin, ceramettalic sprung hub. That is by far our best seller, good slip, good WOT separation, stock pedal feel, durability of a twin disc, and comes with the clutch/flywheel assembly, hardware, slave cylinder/throw out bearing, pilot bearing, clutch bleeder kit and shipping.
Plenty in stock, PM-email-or call if interested.

Got ~8k miles, tons of pulls, tons of high RPM shifting, etc at 1000+rwhp on my mantic 9000. Not a single issue. Replaced an ls9r that was nothing but issues at 700+rwhp.

Here's a YSI C6Z at 15psi on pump +meth we just finished up with the LT1-SC, looking to see how deep in the 9s it'll go...
Made 940 SAE on our stingy dyno, with no break-in on the clutch which I don't recommend trying at home

I can say I've been very happy with my Mantic 9000, My car is on MT's and made 800ft lbs of torque on the nitrous setup with zero issues and drives beautifully. Big thumbs up! We are buying another one soon to put in my girlfriends LS7 car with a Whipple. She drove mine and din't notice any adverse pedal feel from her stock clutch!
