Default Textralia ExoSkel install pictures and early review

the clutch so far is amazing, every single time i let it out it starts to feel better and better, it has a very small chatter but it only has 7 miles on it! the pedal feels just like stock, i didn't see that coming!!! and u can feel in the pedal exactly where the clutch enagages, i love it, and it engages at the last inch and a half, perfect for my shifting and powershifting.

here are some pictures from this morning
Out with the old!




I with the new!!!!!

I've got about 175 miles on mine and the chatter is about gone. It is still a little tricky on the egagement with a big ass cam. It engages high and pedal feels GREAT! I'm breaking it in along with a T56 rebuilds tranny. Got a few more miles before the powershifting starts! The way the tranny feels and the the clutch being high, this thing should be surgical on the shifts!

Use the GM torque specs on it and use red loctite on the bolts.

It looks similar to the new ram. I like it.

How much power is this good to? And what kind of price range was this?

i know double disks are supposed to be the best clutch out there but i'm wondering how long they last. i've heard stories of people that put spec 3 and comparable clutches on their cars and break them in and they only last like 2000 miles. does this kind of stuff happen with the twin disks?

this thing rocks! it was a little expensive, but you pay now a little more than a lot later. Prices are right where they should be, I was skeptical about paying 1200+ bucks for a clutch, but the power I am working with called for reliability-and strength! Very pleased customer...
