mjr46 I see you did have good things to say about them before. You knew someone running them. So you should know if there junk are not I guess it must have went out pretty fast, about how long did it last before trouble and was it a dd or did it see the track to. That's what i was looking for someone that used one they would know. We all change our mind time to time i thinks it's part of life. As for cheap if I can get away with it oh yeah!!

for the power I'm running now the choice is no longer viable.......if you plan for higher hp later then go with the choices I reccommended now, if it were just a daily driver with no abuse planned then yes I'd put THE F1 IN it in......ITD be no worse than the napa clutch I have in my 92 now......heck for all the non believers I have stretch my KC clutch past what many feel is possible and it is over 5 years old.

the kc clutch is just garbage but there are those few like mike that happened to get a good one. i heard people spinning them on the fly wheel with a stock 5.0 and the pedal is stupid stiff with them. my centerforce has a very light even pedal i dont know about the specs but i have heard good things about them
