I've heard the same. My old King Cobra lasted about 20,000 miles until the disc broke. And I don't drive my car hard at all. I could've just had bad luck, though.

Depends how you treat it, plus the amount of power it's receiving! For the price it's a good clutch and lasts awhile with a slightly moddified Stang!

Absolutely, my second one is on the way. I suggest a different throwout bearing though. Thats why I am replacing it. The clucth is fine, throwout bearing crap. Timkin ftw!
