What Clutch to buy?
I was wondering what clutch is better or the pros and cons of each. I was looking at Valair and sbc. Somthing that will hold around 400hp. Also any other good names? Thanks

I just did mine (saterday)
what do you do with the truck / How do you use it?
Most everybody is gonna say the SBC 3250DD
(which is what I would have gone with if I could have afforded it at the time)
I went with the Con-O Kit with Flywheel Because of time and $$ restraints
And I DON'T regret it at all.
Plowed snow with it for the first time last night and loved it
Like many people will also suggest ...

I ran the South Bend Con-OFE before stepping up to the 3600DD. I loved my single disk cause it was super quick to shift held over 450hp and lasted 4 years of drag racing and trailer towing being abused everyday. The dual disk is a little slower but boosted launches are awesome too. South Bend quality is awesome and the customer service is awesome!! Chris

i have the valair full ceramic single disc for prob 15 or 20k now. i have no complaints. its a little jerky but thats to be expected with a single. iv never had a south bend so i cant compare but, my valair holds all the power i have.

I have been running a Valair 13'' ofe for a few years now and i have no complaints. It has 3 seasons of plowing snow, ( lots of engagements) and it has been holding power past its rating (look at sig) rated at 500hp and 1000tq and i dynoed 550 and 1200, no slips.

Love my SBC 3600 DD. Great customer service. Took about 1000 miles to break in but great ever since. Backing up is slight issue with the 5th wheel but that is what low lock is for as most places I RV have gravel paths.
