Default Clutches

I have a super charged 06 gs and I'm in the middle of building up the bottom end, while I have it tore apart I would like to add a new clutch. Right now I'm leaning towards a Dyad twin disk, are there any others out there I should consider.

Mantic 9000 dual disc, stock like feel with excellent holding power. They also have a triple disc, depending on your HP goal.

Check forum vendor ECS for pricing.

Whichever clutch you decide, follow the break-in-procedure.

As already stated, Mantic 9000 unless you are looking to make over 1000, then the triple is your answer. Best clutch out there IMHO.

Link in my sig, we include a pilot bearing, clutch bleeder kit and shipping in the cont US. Everything else comes from Mantic complete with the hardware, slave and throw out bearing.

Drives close to stock while also powering some of the fastest manual Corvettes on this board.

I have a McLeod RXT on ~650 rwhp. The only problem I have with the clutch seems to be the same problem that most people have with multi-disk clutches.. it chatters some during takeoff and rattles at idle.

My mantics don't do that at all.

If you can swing it, get the triple. Drives better than the twin.

People with RXTs say they don't chatter too. Mine does. I must have terrible luck because this is the second car and second manufacturer of clutches that have chattered.

Other people have had Mantics chatter, so it doesn't mean this guy will, or won't have the same problem.

Agreed. I think chattering is more of an install/tune/etc issue. New mantic triple is smooth as can be, zero chatter.

I have a Mantic Twin that was installed by a very reputable shop. Chatter largely goes away after break-in. Now it is sporadic and hardly noticeable. If you have an exhaust or the baffles open, you won't even notice it. Small price to pay for the driveability it offers.

Mine was reduced after break-in also. I've been looking for someone local with Mantic to swap cars with for a couple minutes. We aren't exactly local though.

Monster LT1 series is another option that is less common here but has driven like stock for me, doesn't rattle, etc.

There's a -S, -SC version in twin and triple disc varieties, depending on power

(Mantic is perfectly good also though, obviously given the responses..)
