If it slips in fifth it will slip in sixth even worse. Don't run anything higher then SW1 if you want the stock clutch to hold.

Yep you will be talking to Peter @ SBC soon for sure to get his DD. I'm in the same boat Smarty Revo SW #6 and running 37" tires is not easy on the clutch. If I'm not careful and roll into the power, it will slip on 3rd. The clutch is on its last breat and I already have a SBC DD on order. I just drive the OEM cluch till it stops then replace it with SBC DD.

I burned out the stock clutch, and an SBC DD 3250. I am currently running the 3600.

I run my Smarty on 9 all the time, and my SBC FE never slips... At all... I was afraid I would need a dual disc, and no worries.

I'm gonna jinx myself now, but I have the Smarty REVO on sw4 and my banks 6 gun on 3 and I have no slip in any gear. Stock clutch with 90k on it... . B4 the smarty The truck dyno'd 780ftlbs, held it no prob...

My stock clutch had 82K on it and would dyno 400/800 and i never slipped it.



I had Rip put in a SB OFE just because the truck was down there for some other stuff, he had the time and I had the money.



If my truck wasn't down at his shop 2 weeks ago I would of continued on with my stock clutch.

what you happen if i loward the tq mang. on the smart on #3 with the revo would that help with slipage?

 

[ChrisBlevins]

You've got the G56 so you have to replace the flywheel and slave when you do it those dang dual mass flywheels... .



The NV5600s have a better clutch setup in them than the G56s do.
