| 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!

| 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... |
