Default Monster clutch level 5 installed!!!!!!!!

Hi All!!
Just finished with a Level 5 Monster and i am to say the least very impressed and ecstatic about the initial drive in the Z06....I have driven many cars with PUCK style clutches and i hated them.. But there is something goin on right with this set-up.. And i like it...

The pedal pressure feels almost as stock as it can be..My Daughter (105 lbs.)drove this car and said that it was easier than her Z28!!!!
The Test drive showed very VERY SLIGHT chatter and was almost undetected with the right RPM,s and clutch release.. No jerking,no jumping My wife could drive it very easily!!!!! People have asked for some test results and they will be coming on this one next week.. Beach trip planned for the weekend... That should get some city driving and some miles on it 600-700 by Tuesday!!!!

Some pics of the install for you to check out... Mike Yeager@ EastCoast Performance (1-864-404-1776) handled all the Questions the customer had and did a GREAT JOB working with Him.. Clutch was recieved in A fast manner and installed as quickly... IM SOLD on the MONSTER!!!!!! Thanks also to MONSTER for Manufacturing a Great Product... Next Test DRAGSTRIP!!!!!!

Cool,

I'm looking forward to hearing how it lasts at the dragstrip after 30 - 40 passes.

I did the Stage III about 550 miles ago and I LOVE IT. The chatter (what little there is) will go away after about 350 -400 miles and / or about 10 heat cycles. I am actually pretty convinced that it is the heat cycles as opposed to the miles, but I could be wrong. Pedal feels like stock.

Have not been to the track or tried a hard launch, but I have wound it up a bit The quicker you try to shift the more aggressively the clutch behaves!

Great Support! delivered on time, and as promised! Great communication from Mike as well!
