Valair Clutch is in: review

Clutch review:



I wanted to give my review of the new clutch that I have in my truck. It’s the ceramic valair. At first this clutch engaged real close to the floor and was grabby. After 1000 miles it engages almost like stock with stock like pedal pressure. I had some problems at first with the clutch not disengaging I guess I got some air in the hydraulics. I would have to prime the clutch pedal until it built pressure before I started driving. With some seat time that problem is gone. As far as holding power it is great…with the tst on 6/6 and ez on 3 it doesn’t back down at all. The truck takes of like a rocket. One complaint that I have on the clutch is that it is very loud with my foot off the pedal and in neutral it chatters. I talked to Dan about this and he said for this clutch this is normal and that he has a newer version of this clutch that is more quiet…oh well. By the way Dan is a great guy to deal with.



Overall I really like this clutch and would do it again. With the money I saved I am going to order the GDP walbro kit any questions holla!

Does your clutch have a spring-dampened disc?

He is the 1st one we did, He had a injector stick open & wash the cylinder. Let this be a lesson to you guys running alot of fuel psi.
