Default McLeod vs monster

I would like to be able to handle 500+ rwhp don't like the feel of the stock clutch...feels to week and sloppy (may need replacing )

I want the one I go with to be as bullet proof as I can get it

between those 2 I would go with mcleod, probably the rxt over the rst just because of the power it can handle... the rst would be fine for 500 but if you ever want to turn it up later a clutch is not a fun job to do twice so I would rather overdo it to give a little room to grow... mantic is another good clutch and I have an act twin in my car, it's a good clutch but they aren't very popular in the corvette world for whatever reason... I have used them in the past in my import days and they were always great so that's why I went with one on this car and it did not disappoint

I'm with Neutron... I run the Mcleod RXT in my 01 Z.... Stock feel, yet it bites hard! Even with 800 ft lbs of TQ...
