Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) 2001 HO clutch options?

[Texas Diesel]

Any suggestions?

The truck will have RV275's or something equivalent, mild fueling box.



He will be towing near GVWR when not runing empty.

I'd look at a South Bend CON OFE or a CON FE. The FE is a heavier duty clutch good for 550HP. The OFE is medium duty good for 405HP.

I added RV275s to my Catcher 3 weeks ago and slipped the clutch BAD that day. I have never towed or raced this stock HO clutch and only have 40k miles. I will be going with a CON FE real soon. I just think the difference in grabbiness (a word?) would be made up by the greater grip of the FE over the OFE.

I'm running the Con FE. It was grabby when I had just the stock injectors & EZ box. Once I added the Mach 4's the grabbiness went away. The initial clutch engagement was never rough before the 4's were added, nothing a little rpm/slippage didn't smooth out.

Boy this came up at the right time, I just added Indutral Injector Service stage 2 and now I can't use the comp box WAY TOO MUCH SLIPPAGE... ... ... . so it's time to replace the clutch, only have about 20,000 miles on it!!!

I just installed a OFE last month. Should I have gotten the FE instead? I have a Catcher, TST PM3, and will be installing Mach 1. 6 injectors and a PDR HX40 in the next couple weeks. I don't know of any dynos here, but anyone know about how much hp/torque I would get with this combo?

Thanks, the CON OFE wins

haisley machine twin disk street clutch here, 65k and going strong, once you go to a twin disc street clutch you will never go back. engagement smooth as silk and no slippage. it is worth the money to do it. i have had several clutches, this is by far my favorite for a street truck. just my . 02

I have a COnFE and would never change if you paid me. it has taken everything I can throw at it and laughed. There is nothing like roasting the tires with a 14k gooseneck behind
