I have the Mcleod RST and couldn't be happier. Lighter than stock and holds everything I throw at it.

I have heard of those who complain that when they lug the motor, around 1500 rpms the clutch rattles. I expect this out clutches as it is normal.

Don't pick a clutch because of the price. If you are not happy you will be spending another 300-500$$ to take it out and put another in just for labor.

I also had (still have the pressure plate and flywheel if anyone is interested) an RPS clutch which I really liked. It was quiet and held the power. Pedal pressure was pretty bad.

what do you guys think/have heard about the centerforce clutches? My shop recommends them. I do love all the good things I've heard across the board about mcleod though..

I saw that the OP said that his clutch was real heavy, more so than other S197 owners. Mine is exactly like that!

Every other S197 I have felt feels very soft to me but mine feels very stiff. I am not sure why this is, is yours an 05 as well?

I have an 05. I let my buddys dad take my stang for a spin and the first thing he asked was if the clutch was always so stiff. He bought an 06 but I did notice the clutch on em were fairly stiff.
