Default G56 Clutch......which one?

So my XRT got here on Friday and for some reason, my DPF fell off and is laying on the ground now..............Dang Dodges! I put the 120hp tune on right away, and in 6th gear my clutch slips when I try to hammer on it. I will not be doing any other mods to this truck. What will be a good daily driver clutch that won't slip with the XRT and dpf delete? I'm leaning towards Valair, but which clutch? Thanks

either a valair or a southbend, you could go with a big single disc...or a smaller double disc...like a 3250# Plate pressure or similiar

I would recommend a Valair Dual Disc. If your not going to get into Sled Pulling id go with a Valair Nodular DD. Let me know If I can help ya.

Nope, no sled pulling and no drag racing either probably. I just need a simple but strong clutch that will not slip and last.

Is it absolutely necessary to upgrade the hydraulics for a new clutch?

On a Dual Disc the upgrade is Required. Ive seen to many people stuck on the side of the road cause there truck won't go into gear after they installed a DD clutch with Stock Hyd.
