Having a line lock on the clutch would basically be a trans brake. Hmm, this sounds like fun... Better have a stout drivetrain though.

Great for consistency and yes, they make the motor sound like "crap" but they are effective.

I've installed the one that Synergy sells, good documentation, works well and installs easily.

Hi Guys,

I run mine with just the momentary off my shift **** and my line lock for burnouts etc... THE ONE THING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE LPE IS THAT YOU MUST HAVE A FACTORY OR PROGRAMMED RPM LIMITER AT REDLINE ETC...
