If you asking if they are interchangeable, the answer is no. A scatter shield for a cable tranny is different then a scatter shield for a hydro tranny.

 

If you are running on the street, that should make your passenger real happy

 

I know that,but how do i keep something like a shatter flywheel from ******* up my motor heheh.

No way to save the tranny case and sometimes the block eats it also. Scattershield is just to protect you and innocent by standers.

 

to protect your motor you're going to need a high quality clutch and flywheel combo.

 

SO far i have a clutch masters lightned flywheel,and i just need a good *** clutch to hold all this power.Any ideas.

 

we had a JUN chromoly flywheel, that **** held, nothing wrong with it. the only thing that gave out was the ACT clutch and ripped away from everything around it.

 

yea, that's why i said clutch & flywheel combo. if you're running a decent amount of power and slicks, running modifed stock pressure plates (ie. ACT, Clutchmasters) is a hazard to your drivetrain. You want something that's designed to take the abuse, for instance the tilton, os giken, clutch masters dual disc.

 

ACT and CM have modified stock pressure plates?So there just stock one made to handle more power?Thats shitty.Name some more companies in the $300-$450 price range for clutches,i need a good one.Thanks

 

Untrue, both ACT and CM (at least on their high end clutches) are mostly custom made parts for the clutch. Better quality center sections, bigger rivets, stronger diaphrams, etc. Lots of reasons for a clutch to explode and not all of them the fault of the mfg.

 

The CM stage 5 I have is all new quality stuff.

 

true, lots of people use ACT/CM with success. i guess im just a sucker for marketing but at the same time i've seen pictures of the destruction of a clutch letting go, and it tags the tranny and block turning them into garbage.

 

The clutchmasters/ACT combo is nice but wehn you bust over 350fltbs every day and harsh launches you gonna destroy your tranny and shooot your pressure plate outside the trannsmission. Like Sefi says you must go with a high qualy clutch combo that wont get destroyed. Such as

Tilton
Os geiken
ClutchMaster dual Disc
RPS carbon

 

i don't mean to scare anyone but check out what St00pid posted on CSi.

 

and the worse part is i've seen worse. imagine the heartache of screwing over a fully built turbo block, which has happened.

 

Just wondering...
Do all tracks have this rule? Is there any way to visually inspect that you have a scattershield in (seems like you could just "say" you have a scattershield if you have an 11 second car)?

 

here's a link that shows what the scatter shield looks like.

So if im not going over 350lbs of tq then i should just go with an act or cm clutch?

 

it really depends on which track if it is a NHRA track 11.99 or quicker must run a scatter shield. but if it is a IHRA track 11.49 and quicker must run a scatter shield.
