Thanks for the basic physics and ICE theory reminder. Now which type of clutch would help with "MOI"? Other than sticking with a steel flywheel.

Just about every single thread I’ve seen on this site talking about clutches, people tend to talk about clutch performance at the drag strip, high rpm speed shifting, and peddle pressure.
What I would like to know, is if there is a particular clutch type, manufacture, or style; that will provide more throw to allow more control getting the car rolling from a dead stop with an aggressive cam that doesn’t like to behave under about 1200 rpm. I really don’t know how else to describe what I’m referring to, but I can’t stand how much I have to ride the clutch to just get the car rolling without either spinning the tires (from too much throttle), or stalling the damn thing (not enough throttle).

i'm running a .652 lift cam and i have no issues from a dead stop rolling out with the mantic. You don't have to slip the **** out of it and it doesn't spin unless I want it too. I get a little surge between 1300-1400 rpm at low speeds but that isn't the clutch's fault.

also in the market for a new clutch (crappy LS9R clutch let go in 800 miles). its also between the rxt mcleod and now the mantic 9000 since I've been hearing good things from them. quick question does the mantic come with a flywheel in the kit or no? i know it comes with the slave cylinder, but i just bought a new one when the katech took a crap so it should still be good.

Ditto, it does come with a flywheel.
