Mantic triple??? Active vendors?
Im looking to step up to the mantic triple a little sooner than expected. Running the twin now. I've seen a few vendors say they have them or can order them. By any chance does anyone know of someone who has some laying around?

I called ECS and they had them in stock when I got mine. It's a great clutch for something that can hold 1,500hp but it does rattle when the clutch pedal is pushed in more than I expected. Was told this is normal.
I know LT1Z on here is a mantic distributor too so you can hit him up and see if he can get you one quick since I'd assume he knows who has one etc
what's wrong with the double?

Has anyone tried one out yet? There is not a better driving clutch than the mantic twin disc in my car right now, but I need to hold more power.

Are you having issues with your twin? Mine has been holding 1200rwhp for awhile now, no issues.
Joe@CPR had 2 mantic triples in stock last time I was over there. One was for his personal car but odds are that will never go back together so it will probably just sit on the shelf for months.
Then again Doug/CHris@ECS are awesome so I would just order from them.

The triple drives just a little stiffer then the dual. I would only go triple if you are making over 1000 ft lbs at the wheels though.

The pressure plate is identical to the twin, so technically it is exactly the same as the twin. I have seen differences from car to car in both twins to triples which I expect is the master, but the difference is very minimal from what I have seen here.
We will typically put those around 900 RWHP on up in a triple when purchasing for the first time just so the clutch is not "on the edge" even though it is within twin spec's. Especially since labor cost is a major factor with a clutch and there is little down side to the feel of the car with a triple, so going a little above what is absolutely needed works out better for the customer in the long run. However if the car has the twin already then we leave it. We have pushed them to 1100+ RWHP without failure.
I hope that helps.

hahah....
I'm running a mantic triple. I had McLeod RXT in before it, which I was not very happy with. car is ~900whp with 866tq at wheels.
Mantic triple is a tiny bit more tricky to drive than the twin disc cars I've driven but really not a big deal. You drive it 6 times and you stop noticing any difference. drives great. only complaint is it rattles more when clutch pressed in than I expected, sounds kind of like a ducati in that way. other than that it's fantastic clutch, no chatter, great engagement, pretty impressive street manners for a clutch that will hold 1500hp theoretically. if you the extra cost isn't a huge deal and have the car apart I don't see any reason not to step up to the triple and just do it all once.
I barely have 1k miles on it though so jury is not settled on how reliable this will be but I have no reason to think it will be anything other than great

Mine only spun on the dyno at 930whp and 920ft/lbs. It was just a pain tuning. I haven't spun it on the street, but that's mostly a tire issue I'm sure.
I'll stick with it through the season as long as I don't have any issues at the 1/2 mile events. I love the way the clutch feels. Maybe I'll see about moving to something else over the winter.

Big shout out to ECS, they are getting me a mantic triple real quick and with Futral taking care of the install and break in. Can't wait to hear about it and get it back on the rollers for some tuning. If it's as good as y'all say it is, I'll sure find out soon! Time for more powaaa
