"Peter knows the clutch's we need better than anybody else out there. "
HMMmmm - really? I wonder if that should be taken to heart and we should all bow in the direction of SBC?
I freely acknowledge Peter's integrity, experience and knowledge - but I ALSO *seriously* doubt that even Peter would claim to be "all-knowing" where clutches are concerned, or that he alone "sits on the throne" of clutch expertise!
Believe it or not, there ARE a few others out there who ALSO are very knowledgeable and experienced where clutches are concerned! All knowledge as to clutches does NOT begin and end with Peter!
I think a diverstity of clutch designs and characteristics as well as variations in price are good things for consumers - and I absolutely DETEST product slamming and mud-slinging between various factions that think THEIR choice is the ONLY logical one...
We have "oil wars", "Automatic transmission wars" - as well as other variations - fact is, ALL the oils are pretty dern good, as are the several AT upgrades available - and it seems pretty likely the same is true af the several clutch options we have available as well.
I run into this sort of cult hype on a broad front of issues, it's nothing new - and all have the same group who will frantically support their favorite and knock and ridicule all others regardless.
I constantly and sincerely state I support SBC, Peter and his product - the Cerametallic from LUK is relatively new, somewhat untried, and fits into a sector of users and a price class that fits some of us better than currently available competitors - why can't the SBC faithful simply accept that fact, support our decision, wish us well with our choice, and leave it at that?
