Well, I'm already $20 under Summit Racing's price, so that sounds like a pretty good deal to me.

Plus you get unlimited tech support....which is something that a lot of people don't appreciate about the forum venders.

Everyone likes overkill....hahaha

The Powergrip HD would have certainly been enough, but if someone says that they don't want chatter, I can't guarantee that there won't be any.

Personally, I don't mind chatter....especially for a half price clutch...LOL

Ok, now it's my turn to ask....who are you talking to? I surely hope you're not calling me what's behind those asterisks...

WHOA! WHOA!-Hold everything.
JB- I was NOT insulting you in any way-nor was Brent! I'm late getting back here so much has already transpired.
I was not referring to you or the situation at all and I deeply apologize for jumping in and causing a misunderstanding.
I was joking about an old situation - Patrick's (The Village Idiot I refer to) clutch purchase. Was wrong of me to insert that here and again-I apologize.
Please don't hold this against Brent who is nothing but the most helpful tech guy and vendor on this site.
Besides he's gonna be a Daddy soon and I didn't want him to lose a customer!
Now I gotta tear my clutch out and buy one from him!
I fall on my sword...

You must be getting senile. I don't think I spent more than about $300 on my Centerforce DF clutch.

Thank you Chas for clearing things up.
How would I know the inside joke about the Village Idiot?
I have been around here a long time, but do not post very frequently.
I figured you were talking to me.....

No Worries

No piling on here....I was trying to explain why you wanted the big clutch.

But good luck to you....no more help from me.

When you talk to the Olthoffs, I would:

1. Not show your hindend like you did here.
2. Ask them about the notched clutch fork that you will probably need if your slave cylinder pushes the fork towards the front of the car.

I had a Ram clutch already. They are not very good.

Just for the record, I didn't say anything negative to you at all. Now, you may have taken it that way, but that's not my issue.

RAM clutches are great....they go in 75% of my street/strip stuff. Never had an issue. If you had one go south on you, then you had the wrong clutch, had it adjusted wrong, or can't drive. My reputation is staked on the engines that I build and the parts that I sell to go with them. I'm not going to sell junk so that someone can bad mouth me on the internet.

Good luck and have a good evening.
