You tell me when you find out!

I've only run extrreme so far, I'm pretty sure CL will mean a new clutch and I don't need that right now, extreme is plenty for me.

all depends on how you drive.


now since i don't see the point in running crazy larry if you arent gonna romp on it, your clutch won't last very long.

It only took 3000 miles for mine to start slipping. Put it in at 18k and slips at 21k. Works fine on everything but CL.

i ran the crazy larry for about 6000 miles before it's started to slip, but once it started slipping it went out really fast.

mine first stocker started to slip with only the performance setting on the BDTD.

as for which clutch to go with, that all depends on the power you want to have? after you decide how much power you plan on having then chose the clutch that better suits your needs, also factor in how much towing you do?

theres no doubt in my mind that which ever route you chose just make sure its a southbend.

I've run the CL with the stock clutch, I also have a dually so the tires don't want to break free as easily as a SRW.

It will slip very easily if you get on it, sometimes it takes a little while for the clutch pedal to get its pressure back.

As far as getting a different clutch, be careful and do your homework. Some clutches can hold a lot a power, but they can chatter and tear up other things downstream of the clutch.

I have a ConFe on my 99 and it has slowly worn out the drivetrain, although it will defitnitely hold the power.

I guess what I am saying is, don't bother running the CL unless you have money to burn, you don"t plan on putting alot of miles on your truck, or you don't mind having a slightly undependable tow vehicle.
