Default well i went back to the dyno today

and the results are less than stellar. Looks like i will need to buy a new clutch as she started to slip right at 5400rpms. we did 2 pulls just to confirm that it was the clutch and yeah, it is. As we were looking at the dyno sheet we laid my previous dyno graph over it and it looked like my clutch was slipping when it made 758.

so what do you guys think. right now it has a mcleod rxt in it. do they make a rebuild kit or should i just get a new rxt to put in it?

An RXT should easily hold that amount, it must have been best on. Sure it is not an RST?

My RXT rebuild was like 70% of a new one. But they surfaced the flywheel and rebuilt it to my power goals and driving style. I switched from the tick master/stock slave to stock hydraulics and it drives/drove awesome before my trans went out.
