I've heard nothing but positive things about ProClutch setups. I think my next setup will be a ProClutch 6 puck sprung hub.

remember a stiff clutch, like the act, puts wear on your thrust bearing. i sell clutchmasters because they are easier on the thrust bearings. i have had a stage 4 in my car for 3 years now. never any issues.

I have the ACT set p with the street disc. it is too stiff. I was thinkin about goin with clutchmaster also because i always hear posotive things, but, with this act i dont like the way it feels after its broken in, and the flywheel looks like ***. and i've only got 3K on it.
