[blowinsmoke95]

okay,... i need help deciding on a clutch but unsure of which one will suit my car best... the car wont see the track a whole lot... mainly just a dd and weekend traffic light car... mods include= 3in exhaust, P.R. external dump o2housing, FP 68hta, ported 7bolt intake mani, FMIC, gm maf&translator, evo VIII fuel pump and injectors, cometic mls hg, arp head studs, obx tubular manifold, 98-99 h8 ecu, etc... im currently running 22-24psi which is what caused the death of the current clutch..(clutchmasters 2500) what clutch can i run safely without having to worry about dreaded "crankwalk"... this is by far the strongest running 7bolt ive ever seen in person, and wish to keep it that way.... ALL OPINIONS WELCOME.....

SBC SS-Series pressure plate with a TZ-series kevlar disk or a TZ/FE-series kevlar/feramic disk would both easily handle your power levels, application, and streetability requirements. If you are going to be doing primarily street driving, I would go with the kevlar disk as it will last longer than the kevlar/feramic disk. The kevlar/feramic disk will handle more abuse without glazing and more heat from excessive launching.

Both options I stated are extremely smooth and streetable and work great with any South Bend Clutch or ACT pressure plate. The SBC SS-Series pressure plate is somewhere between a 2200-2300 pound pressure plate so it has a soft pedal pressure and won't kill your engine's thrust bearings.

So, in recap, I would look at:

South Bend Clutch SS-Series Pressure Plate with TZ-Series full-face sprung-hub kevlar disk
or
South Bend Clutch SS-Series Pressure Plate with TZ/FE-Series kevlar/feramic sprung hub dual friction disk
or
ACT 2100 pressure plate with SBC TZ-Series full face sprung-hub kevlar disk.
