Default Vendor question

Any vendors on here sell Tilton clutches?? I am building a 1500HP project and I am looking at Mcleod twin but think the Tilton may be a better way to go. The internet is not really much help in looking for a vendor.

I know a Tilton dealer in the DFW area, but they're not a supporting vendor. PM me for details if needed. Not sure why you are even considering a twin with that much power. Why not a triple? RPS, Mcleod, Textralia etc...

We have been working with Titlon and Quarter master for a long time. It's not something we advertise all the time. But we know how to make one work in the C5s. It's not a simple bolt in application.

Yes the RPS triple would be ok too, which I can get my hands on.

Drag? roadrace? or street?

Thanks Doug. Looking at the Tilton carbon three or four disc. My builder is not a dealer and we are not having a lot of luck working with Tilton directly. Talking with Mcleod as their twin MIBA is in another 1200rwhp car and holding up well but I am most interested in the Tilton. I may have the builder give ya a call. Thanks for the information. Just trying to match a clutch with all the other beefed up parts.
