Double posting - got this going in Tech also but I know you guy can and have broken every thing in a C5 so:

Doing a little diff up grade. Have Hoosier carbon fiber clutch going into C5 Z06 diff. Want to buy Hoosier bellville washers as they (Hoosier) suggest they should be used with their clutch packs. No problem - they are only about $11 each until you get to checkout where they want $50 to ship them. These could go in an envelope or $5 USPS box!! Talk about a rip off or the "Corvette TAX" !!! Momma didn't raise but one fool and it wasn't me. Any supporting vendors stock these or members have access to reasonable pricing?

Thanks

RPM will sell you the whole setup. They may separate the washers. Call and ask.

Why not just use the GM stuff. Works good. Lasts long time.

Search the forum. Almost everyone that takes down a diff with GM washers finds them cracked or broken. No GM Bellville washers for me.

You asked for advice in this section from people who have BTDT...

I've probably abused/broken as much or more than anyone in this section. I've broken and rebuilt more diffs than I care to remember.

C6Z washers and clutch packs are up to the task.

But, hey... it's your money. Spend how you wish...

Rebuilt mine with C6Z washers and clutch packs but didn't hold up, really dissappointed but I'm thinking it's an installer problem more than anything else..... Did it myself, should've just pulled the diff and had the parts installed for me....oh well, tossing a coin to use the same parts again or upgrade the posi like you did....even though not near your power level...

[QUOTE=dankhts;1593873374]Did the C6 washers break? Clutches slip? Clutches roast/toast/glaze?

Thanks

Dunno for sure yet, gotta take it apart and have a look...too cold to lay under my car in the garage right now ......the first built 3 rib diff I had went over 200 passes at 11.0x this one didn't make a season running mid tens....

Needing to replace my posi clutch pack (again) - what's the difference between your carbon fibre kit with the HD belville washers and the GM C6 Z06 posi clutch pack? Sent you at Hoosier an email asking the same question....
Thanks!

Anxious to hear what they say. Please post their response.

Last set I bought from RPM, they told me they were C6 Z06 clutch discs with an aftermarket HD belville washer..... Hoosiers are likely the same.... Should hold up fine at my power level and track times, but like I say I don't yet know why mine started slipping...
