its not gonna be all that cheap to switch over...but def not like buying a new clutch.
like i said earlier, i thought about it, but i want less parts to fail within my clutch...this is already the 3rd time ive head my 5600 down...and i dont wanna be doing it all that often

According to Olee The biggest thing is to get a Fluiddamper ! It seems to really save a tranny when running a DD! Yes the new clutch is supposed to help but im going to wait and redo my tranny at the same time!

first time i wiped out 6th gear, something went wrong on the rebuild cuz ever since i put the tranny in i had this slight clunking that i assumed to be the new DD i put in at the time. well it continually got worse, pulled it and found slop in the input shaft bearing, still waiting on the diagnosis of other internal parts. hopefully he calls me tomorrow after he gets a chance to tear it down.

I hate to drop in and hijack a forum...but for you guys up around 500 hp what would be a good turbo for a tst pm3, smarty, and edge 150hp sticks combo? I kind of lost you guys in the midst of all the 62-12, 64-14...I don't have this setup yet, but I'm trying to build a good combo for right around the 500hp neighborhood and daily driven...thanks in advance
also, you guys running dd clutches...how bad are they to drive daily?

I'm running a phatshaft 64/14 with 150 hp sticks, a smarty, a hotrod pump, and a tst and with the tst off I can't get into egt trouble. A 62 might spool quicker, but the 64 pulls harder on top,..... just ask Getblown
=PAnd the DD isn't bad- the worst part is getting it into gear from a stop. I'm wating for some more info to come out about southbends new line of DD's, but they look promising
