G56 Clutches??

First, What size are they? Is there an aftermarket replacement that takes more power? Thanks for the help.

They have to be like 13" in diameter. Southbend is a big seller that leaves every buyer totally happy. Our G56 trannies have a dual mass flywheel (you might have all ready known that) that stinks. So when we upgrade to a better holding clutch, we must also pay for a solid flywheel. I had a Valair in my last truck, it held great. Southbend is making a dual disc/dual flywheel with sprung hibs, which should be radical.

South Bend Clutch HAND DOWN! Peter is the best guy to deal with. Go with the 3850 Sprung hub Dual Disc clutch and you will never need another one no matter what you do to the truck for the life of it

The Valair is a good set up as well, and Dan is very easy to deal with as well
