Anyone using a Hays clutch?
I just ordered a new clutch for my car. I went with an 11 inch diaphram street strip form hays. I have gotten a few recommendations on them and chose that over the centerforce. I currently have a centerforce in the car now and have had some problems with disengagement while racing. I just want to know what anyone here thinks about Hays.

I have always gone with Hays and have been happy with them. I use a 10-1/2" diaphragm cover and disk and they have held up very well through the years, despite the fact that I dump the clutch at 3000 rpm more than I should. :D I always specify a 2800lb pressure plate for a firm pedal and good grip. 2800lb may me more than most are comfortable with, but they always last a long time.

I have the 11" Hays street/strip disc & PP set in mine & have no complaints. Its smooth, not too pressure heavy & it just works. I've always used Hays with good results.

Thanks, those are just the type of replies I want to here. I ordered the 85-113 kit just in chase anyone wants to know. I will let everyone know how it turns out in a couple of weeks.
