im in the market for a new clutch and was wondering what you guys think of these 2 clutches? or if there is anything else out there that i might want to look into? im leaning toward the Clutch Masters because of the completely rebuildable fly wheel. thanks for the info.

Exedy is very popular as well. Come to think of it I havent seen any negative comments thus far.

Competition Clutch also sells a twin disc setup.

 

I have Competition clutch which is samething as Clutch masters.

 

If those were my 2 choices I would pick Tilton all the way. Well I would use Tilton anyways...great product.

 

If I had to choose the cluth over again I would go with excedy, or competition. The tilton was a pita to install. Too much modification to get it to work like it should have from the box.

 

clutch masters the price is good & they service what they sale

 

tilton. had mine going on 3 yrs now. was in my street car(over 500hp) a race car last yr(over 800 to the tires) and now in my ~450 hp street car. holding up great so far.

 

I am going to be running the CM FX700 I will let you know how I like it once it is installed and driven on

 

I am running the tilton I have beat up on the thing for the last 5 years with over 800whp never had one problem. It's great to not have to worry about a part on your car. With the tilton I dont even think about the clutch. I have never run the CM so I cant say anything about it either way. I dont know why you would want/need to rebuild the fly wheel. I have had no problem with the fly wheel or installing the clutch. If you want to buy the tilton I can get one for you.

I ran a Clutch Masters FX600 last year, and burned through it in about 6 months. I was right at the limits of the FX600. Called them up, and they asked me to send it to them. They ended up replacing it, and upgrading it to the FX700 for a mininmal cost.

There customer service gets from me.

 

Tilton all the way, theyve held up really well on all of our cars.

 

We use a Tilton and I must say I'm very happy with it. It is a great clutch and takes a serious beating. I would lean hard towards the Clutchmasters simply because they put a lot of money into sport compact drag racing. We need to put the money back into the companies that heavily support drag racing. When I buy another, it will be a CM.

im just preparing for the worst when i say that the flywheel is rebuildable. buying $150(estimated) flywheel insert is a lot cheaper than buying a $650 flywheel. im currently on a tilton right now and i have to say that i have had no problems with it at all. the reason im leaning toward the CM twin disc is because they can make me a custom flywheel for my application. just my 2 cents

Agree with this. They have been super helpful and I have run their stage 4 cluch in my car for over 3 years with out a single issue. I also have run their clutch in other cars with out any issues.

 

I use Clutch Master and I like it

 

We are sold on Clutch Master! Great product with the best in customer service.

 

tilton hands down

 

the exedy is a great option. No modifications to the bearing or any of that stuff.

 

Holy Crap Yonni, I thought you had dropped off the face of the earth

 

TILTON ............still good after 3 years

 

1300hp on Clutchmasters twin disk. Absolutely zero problems and the people there are the pretty cool too!

Clutchmasters

 

I've seen exedy twin disc have stress cracks in between the pucks with not that many miles on it. I would go with a tilton clutch. thats what i'm using now

 

rps carbon carbon, in my opinion

 

can any of these companies besides clutch masters make me a custom fly wheel? that is one reason im going with clutch masters....

 

I just ordered my CM fx700 for my K & this thread insures me a good buy!
