RPS Street Twin Clutch
Carbon on Carbon between floater and inner disks surfaces.
Organic on Metal between PP/FW and outer disk surfaces.

Was installed in my CTS-V with a McLeod Slave.
Pedal Pressure is stiff with a McLeod slave, so a change of master is recommended for this combination.
Alternatively, run it with the stock slave for very normal pedal pressure.
Clutch should work on any LS1, LS6, LS7, LS2, LS3 with T56.

Clutch used less than 3K miles.
Priced to sell, since I decided not to save it for future re-install.

Clutch $375
(sells for $1600 new)

McLeod Slave $200
Note: Slave has been fitted with a remote bleeder and the GM Quick Connect for a easy install and maintenance.

How was the engagement with this clutch? Other than the heavy pedal, was it suitable for a daily driver? I currently use a Textralia z-grip in my C5, and it isn't real DD friendly. 1st gear engagement at low rpm results in a lot of chatter. Can you measure the two friction plates to give some idea of any wear?

Consider me next in line please.

Default Engagement ?

The egagement was nice because of the organic outer disks.
There was no chatter, just a quicker than stock engagement.
It has a narrower slip range than a full organic, since it locks when the carbon surfaces (floater and inner disks) meet.

The stiff pedal was the only downside, but that's only because of the McLeod slave.
The pedal effort is only slightly increased with the stock slave.

It's definetly suitable for a daily driver.
You will never suffer like with a puck clutch, although you won't mistake this for stock either.

Thanks for the response lunarx. Glad you got a buyer, too bad it wasn't me. I can't justify pulling my Textralia to replace with another $1000+ clutch, but if I find another deal like this on a used one I would love to give it a try. Good luck to both buyer and seller.
