Clutch Question
 
My stock clutch is slipping everynow and then I am planning on putting a new in it in a month or so. some people say a single disk others say a dual disk witch one is better. I know the differance in price is alot but what else. but wat are the advantages of running a dual over a single. The truck is a daily driver I have pulled 2 trailers with it, and in the process of looking at ski boats. and I do plan on doing some sled pulls every once and awhile with it. After all the upgrades are done I want to be in the ballpark of 550 rwhp. So any help with this would be helpful.

anysled pulling what so ever will need a DD, a single is good for street use and mild street racing , but any real competition use a DD is what you want. For what you are looking to do and the HP goal you are shooting for go with a DD and do it right the first time. Shoot me a PM if i can help you out we carry both SB and Valair.

Like DD said any thoughts of pulling a sled and you will need a Dual Disc. Let me know if we can help.

id say double disc, i tow heavily with mine and im loving the southbend, give peter a call at southbend, tell him what you plan to do and he'll hook you up with the right clutch.

not just any DD but one thats 3600#s or up and 12 pucks.
Go south bend and don't look back just be sure and change rear main seal while you there

If your only going to pull every once in a while you could do a 3400# DD.

thanks for the help yall the clutch didnt last as long as I thought it would so I am in a pinch and got to get it running quick. so I am just going with a valair single right now but in about 6 months or so I am going to sent the truck to the shop and get the billit shafts and a south bend dd then. I just have to get the truck runnin now I miss the black smoke it has been 5 days with out it and feels like a month.
