Default Anyone ever try this clutch?

K70119-2SK is the clutch set, paid 600 brand new. It goes between a nv4500 an 98.5 24 valve. Just want some feed back to get an idea of what to expect. I ordered it from Orileys, in hind set I should have ordered a name brand just for peace of mind. The motor uses a edge comp box, fass 150. K&n air filter.

I just Bought a Valair Dual disc clutch, definitely worth the extra 600$

I am not sure that's gonna do the job for you. It will work for a while but with the edge comp and if you tow a lot there isn't enough meat on the clutch disk IMO. The valair kevlar single disk would be a good choice. Also the stock 12" flywheel is ok but using the 13" from a NV5600 would be better. You can also get the conversion kit from valair.
If your looking for a stock clutch try brute force it worked ok for a while.
I like how they say exceeds the OEM that's not saying much when we modify our trucks the way we do.

I would look at valair and southbend for clutches. I would also get rid of the K&N filter. Its not helping you out. Its just letting oil and dirt into the turbo and intercooler. You can get a BHAF and it will last longer and flow more air than the K&N. Plus it also wouldn't hurt to upgrade the input shaft as well. Especially if you are ever considering a dual disc setup.
