Thats all i was trying to give the guy when i said "ill hook you up" Im not crying cause i really dont care. Its their truck.

And mind me asking who thought i was selling?
You have been telling people here about Haisley and Kenny's stuff since you got here, what makes you think now would be any different?

THE ONLY REASON you heard from me is because you posted what I referenced twice here already, and I received a complaint about it. There is no problem with you showing links to either one of those products here and never has been.

It is none of your business who reported your post , it wasn't a problem then and it has only become a problem now because you are whining about it.

Like I said before, I told you in PM I did not believe for an instant that your intent was to advertise the products for sale, but I removed the post because it could be taken that way and didn't want to receive any more reports about something that was not a problem. I thanked you for your consideration in the matter which apparently to you meant you should wait a week before whining about it in the forums

Ok sure!

Back to the origianl post follow those links i posted for an awesome clutch! Kennys is a little cheaper but is just as strong. If your looking for a faster shifting clutch i would go for the haisley street puller. I had one in my truck back when it was a ppumped 2.8 truck running around 800HP and never slipped. That clutch is now in my brothers 05 and has over 50 hooks on it and just recentley started to slip. And now i have the kennys triple disc

Sounds like you just have to much truck for your clutch. Talk to Dan and he will tell you what kind of setup would be right for you. I'm saying probably one of Valair's DD

Sounds like you are approaching the hp threshold. What is your driving style? A lot of slipping the clutch on take off, boosted launches, 4x4 launches, going WOT only after clutch is let out, letting clutch out gently, harsh?

with my FE SB I can slip it in 4th or 5th gear hammering it but seems to recover good but the clutch never pulls just drive it rough at times. I dont think mine is the Hp rating I think its my TQ curve. with smarty off I cant slip it. just with the smarty on. Im not a clutch expert. but most likely I Too will need to go up to a double disk with street mannors. but then again I dont even know what my truck is putting down for power. usually on smarty 9 and TST on 5-9. which usually equalls smoke signals out the back.. I can say the peter and crew have been good with service I cannot say anything on any other clutch. ( no wars ).

There is a lot of info here about Valair Clutch - please read it before you purchase it again.

If I had the money, I'd get a South Bend - all of my friends have had nothing but 100% success with them.

Again, please read up on Valair.

Based on all your mods, the clutch is the cheap part... Saving $200 on one brand vs. another or going to a DD would be a waste after all the investment so far.. IMHO...

Can buy a SB DD for cheaper in the DTR store!

I'd stay away from Valair... Shady business practices, do some reading. Some dont mind stealing, others do, would definitely influence my decision (and DID).

If Valair is such junk why does he endorse them as well?
