Haisley also makes really good dual disk clutches. Their street drag would be perfect for what you need. very streetable and you wont slip it. on the site it says not for sled pulling. But we talked to van and he said with the new design it would be fine to pull just dont come off with really high rpm. I got a really good deal one one, and it's going in on monday.

The Southbend 3600lb. 12 button dual disk is an awesome clutch with superb street/towing manners, and it will not slip. The pedal effort is at least 20% more, but not enough to wear out your left leg shifting that 6 speed.

I ran 2 different versions in my 03 6speed, and they performed perfect.

All of the DD clutches from SBC are lever style, not diaphram, like the single disk clutches.

I wouldn't try an Enterprise clutch on the street...it is much more specialized for pulling!

I'm running South Bend's lightest duty DD...and so far at up to 400+hp it's held up perfectly! I have about 65K miles on it, and I think it needs a pilot bearing, so I'm gonna throw one of those in it soon! Other than that, no problems AT ALL!! I also pull trailers up to 35K pounds on occasion, and I'm almost always over 25K when hooked up, so I think I've put this one through it's paces!

if the enterprise clutch is the same as a mitchell which I think it is, It is very noisy. When the pedal is pushed in the squeal is louder than the motor. it sounds like metal on metal. when you let off it squeals also. it can be hard to get into gear as well. its a great sled pulling clutch, but I know a guy who is taking his out and putting the haisley street drag in due to onroad manners. I dont think you can go wrong with a haisley, plus when I spoke with van in murfeesboro he said the street drag can be sledpulled with just dont slip it at high rpm coming off the line.
