Default Twin Disc Clutches... besides Tilton

Kind of silly question since ive only dealt with tilton, but im curious what other companies offer twin disc clutches. I know clutch masters does too. What else is there? And how much?

We run a RPS twin disc carbon in our race car. Retail price is $3500. Its worked out really well for us. Its super smooth engagment and you can run a stock throw out bearing.

CM helps us out with their twin disc setup and we periodically send it back for inspection, wear and cleanup then they ship back within a couple days. It works out well that way to go with these types of manufacturers, god forbid somethign goes wrong a day b4 the event they can send you the parts right away to make it to the event, etc.

I saw an improvement of my all motor car of 1/10th with no other mods except changing from single disc to twin.

Exedy is a nice piece, and the price is unbeatable!! My local speed shop is the east coast distributor for Dakin clutch (the makers of not only Exedy, but about %90 of OEM clutches)

I took a twin disk carbon out of the box the last time I was there, and it is one hell of a clutch! I plan on getting one of my own someday... I just need to make some REAL power first!!

I agree, I really like this clutch. I just installed a Tilton on a B series and I think I like the Exedy twin in my car ALOT better.
