"High Power" is a relative term (especially around HERE!)

I have the South Bend 3250 DD sprung hub. To me, this will be the only clutch I will ever need in this truck. Superior holding power, longevity and not all that different of a feel from stock.

IMO, dual disk is the way to go.

Comes with a new, billet flywheel. Mine is a 12CB (ceramic button). Looks a little something like this when you install it.

We thought so!

Save some time, call PETER @ Southbend. He won't over sell you. Tell him what you do with the truck, towing weights, HP expectations, etc.

Haisley Machine make a heck of a street dd as well... Most people on this forum are one minded there are other very very good suppliers not just South Bend, and Don M. and The Smarty. I am not talking down to any of the following they all have great products but they are the only ones out there.

You could also probably call Lary at the DTR store and see if he can do anything in the way of a members discount for you....?
