McLeod should make clutches for class 8 trucks, some of those clutches can be brutal to drive!

I started with this single disc clutch.
GM6-HDSS - ACT Heavy Duty Performance Street Sprung Clutch Kit | Advanced Clutch Technology

ACT GM6-HDSS. Way to heavy clutch pedal feel.

Switched to McLEOD RST TWIN DISC after 30 days. much closer to a C6 corvette manual.

But it will also depend on the hydraulic remote cylinder size for the clutch.

eg. 1-1/8th bore vs 3/4" bore. Bigger bore less pedal effort.

See if you can find someone with a clutch you are considering and experience the feel. If you like the feel of a C6 corvette, then you will need to go to twin disc setups.
