Wondering if you guys can help me identify this clutch.

I ordered a Clutchnet Kush Lok disc from importparts.com

From the pictures I took below, looks like an new style Air Lok without the Marcel lining. Notice no copper lining, and 9 holes before the outside organic lining.

What do you guys think?

Looks like the one I have sitting on my apartment's floor...if you look at the side of it you will notice that there is a little wavy metal piece in between both layers...that's the Marcel Plate.

P.S. you might want to take a couple of pictures of the side of the disc just to confirm.

 

Yup - looks like the Kush-Lok. Great clutch and very light (1 lb 8 oz).

 

Thanks Austin and norice for the replies. I value the opinion from those who OWN the stuff they comment on.

Here's a side shot. Please confirm.

 

Yep...that's the Kush-Loc, that wavy looking metal is the Marcel Plate.

 

whats so great about this clutch disk? is it unsprung but still sprung because of the marcel lining? can someone give me more info about it? thanks

 

2nd that

 

Edwin... do you actually think your gonna pull on me, with that little piece of equipment????

ATS FD, Toda FW, Excedy 3 puck here I come.

 

Yes, that is correct...it does not have any springs, the Marcel Plate acts similar to a spring and still cushions the engagement.

http://www.clutchnet.com for more information.

 

What is great about for me it is that it combines the advantages of an unsprung clutch - light weight (it is lighter than ACT's 4-puck, for example) and positive engagement - with the gradual engagement characteristic of a sprung clutch.

You see a previous review of it (which I installed with and ATS final drive, ACT pressure plate and Comptech flywheel) here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=232253

People obsess a lot about the weight of their flywheel - but the clutch disc is rotating mass too. My entire Clutchnet/ACT/Comptech combo weights a total of 17 lbs 15 oz, which is only about 1 lb more (and $1000 less) than the lightweight ATS Carbon Clutch and flywheel system. It is also about 9 lbs lighter than stock.
