Luke Gold Series Clutch

is anyone running them? I I was told that they will hold around 500 hp.
This sounds a little far fetched to me

I ran one in a 6spd 3rd gen truck. I would say get the big south bend and do it one time. I ran the luk for a while and it held 500hp id say but no long. It was a little cheaper so I got what I paid for. hope that helps any

I've heard of a problems people have had with the gold clutches. Go with SBC, you can't beat the customer service.

LUK gold wont hold 500hp, but the LUK cerametallic might. i slipped my LUK cerametallic at 420hp on the 5-6 shift. and 6 months later when i removed it and put in the South Bend Clutch, the pressure plate and flywheel were toast.

you get what you pay for, and i learned the hard way.

well same here, mine was sent back in and the truck sat for 2 wks, while they redone the clutch. It slipped pretty easy with just a juice stacked on a power pup. the redone version held for a while but it started to slip later also.
