Anybody have the GM clutch upgrade installed. Crateengine states its good up to 300hp. Good deal for $260. How do these compare to dual force or Spec?

selfinfliction

they don't compare, if you're just looking for the usual bolt ons it will be fine. I wouldn't spend time taking apart everything and risk it not holding if you plan on going 300hp or more

i got it and it works great

ff_drift_lol

is it the exedy oem replacement? I have that and it's eh... I am maybe 260 wheel and I slip occasionally. If it's not that clutch/press plate/bearing package I would like to get the gm upgrade.

I have the gm upgrade clutch kit and have seen over 320whp on it and it has never slipped.

ColeJJones

if the stock clutch is already holding balts at 300hp this will certainly be enough and a cheap oem strong product like this for this cheap is a great buy

BCobaltSS

Best bang for the buck. Has not slipped on me yet . Going 3000 miles on mine now

Mr. Lou

i have had this clutch for almost 2 months, i love it. it handles the power i'm putting down with ease. i highly recommend this clutch kit.

www.gmpartsdirect.com or www.crateenginedepot.com

there is a thread on here, somewhere, that has the part # for this kit and possibly a link directly to it.

stock clutch is crap. 320whp my ass. when I had the 2.8 and 60's the pressure plate would give so bad the pedal would fall. major fade.

The GM clutch held mutiple 5k WOT clutch drops on my 380whp car without issue.

Mr. Lou

car_guy_09

I could tell you what I thought, but its the same as everyone else. Install time for me was about a day and a half all said and done. Followed the directions from the build book. Use a lift if you can.

I have been driving on mine for about a month or so. I haven't really used it aggressively, just your standard roll races once I got it broken in. I like it so far. I'm running ott stage 1 with some bolt ons.

I haven't hit the nitrous with in yet.

Zach06CobaltSC

As I already said, I love mine. I have sprayed mine with a 120 shot and it didn't slip.

Shhh the grown ups are talking.

Talk to Tom over at Crate Engine Depot, they are a supporting vendor also!
