Default Some changes at Monster Clutch Co.

Here is a list of some of the things going on here at Monster Clutch Co., we are very excited about all of the releases we will be having at the end of the year, read on to see what all is going on!
  • We have discontinued all x.5 clutches to make room for the twin disc units that will be releasing at the end of the year.
  • The new Level 1 and 2 clutches will be the same as the old Level 1.5 and 2.5's. These combinations proved to be outstanding for the power rating that they are in and we chose to continue to use these and discontinue the old materials.
  • We "tweaked" the Level 3 and 5 discs to have a smoother engagement and a slightly longer life without altering their already stellar holding capabilities. Remember, these clutches will NOT chatter after the 500 mile break in!
  • We "tweaked" the Level 4 and 6 discs to have a smoother engagement and a slightly longer life without altering their already stellar holding capabilities as well. Remember, these clutches will NOT chatter after the 500 mile break in either!
  • We decided that the Level 3.5-6.5 will not be needed due to the new twin disc units releasing. Having 12 single disc clutch offerings along with 3-4 twin disc setups was just too much, we chose to eliminate these and use the basic twin that we will offer to replace these units; not only will the basic twin hold up to (an estimated) 850hp, it will also be butter smooth and will take a beating when necessary.
  • We are proud to announce our 11" Racing Clutches! These units will be for the avid enthusiast that is looking for a decrease in mass and isn't worried about a little chatter and a stiffer pedal. These clutches will offer 3500+lbs plate loads with only a modest 18% pedal effort increase and will only come in two flavors; a Ceramic and an Iron setup. The Ceramic clutch will hold 850hp and the Iron will hold 950hp, these units are designed to be abused relentlessly. Expect pricing to be slightly less than the current Level 3 and 4 units available right now. We have them in stock and are working very hard to get them on our site.
  • The twin discs... I know you guys have been waiting patiently for a release date. I will tell you right now we have everything ready to go with the exception of the flywheels. Once we get those here it's off to SFI and then on to the production line!

If any of you have any questions at all just shoot me an email at steve@monsterclutch.com or give us a call at the shop at 817-750-2000!

Thanks again!
