TST 1000 ft/lb 13in. clutch& pressure plate

[JTeague]

I just recieved my new 13in ceramic clutch and Sachs pressure plate from TST today. I am hopingto install it Saturday. I haven't heard of many other people using this setup. I would like some feedback from the people that are using it if possible. Thanks.

That's a very strong clutch JTeague. It will take anything you can throw at it. Everybody that has them loves them.

 

[JTeague]

Cool!!!

That will make me rest easy now. Thanks Bill for the input.

I'm not a stick guy but....

I did get to ride in cumminsgetme's truck with one of their clutches in it and as far as I could tell there were no probelms and cord said he was very pleased with it, now the ride was a little different as it just came off the dyno at just short of a grand on T/Q with just the motor, lets just say the ride was :--)

Use or abuse?

I've been known to occasionally hook a truck at the truck pulls. Will this clutch hold if I baby the truck out of the hole with the sled? I usually pull in 3rd low side. My truck has 3. 54 gears and 285/75/16 tires.

No.



1st hi it will live a while, but you are taking life out of that baby every pull.

JFulmer,



Are you going to be able to make the Tulsa dyno day and race?



There is a link to it in my sig if you haven't seen the thread

Does this clutch have to be manually centered when installing it? I have one that I bought from Joe Donelly about a year ago, not sure if its the same clutch or not. The instructions with mine said to use a dial caliper to center it, but I didn't have much luck with that method. I ended up mounting a dial indicator mounted to one of the bellhousing bolts. It was kind of a pain, since I had to turn the motor over by hand several times, but it did work.
