Well my king cobra clutch has started to slip and it's time for a new clutch. I've been thinking about getting a CF DF clutch, but I did a search on the subject some had good/bad things to say about them.
I looking for a clutch that grabs great, minimal pedal effort, no chatter, and will last fairly long. My car is fairly stock except for an O.R. H-pipe and flows and 3.73 are going in soon. I do a fair amount of street driving if that makes any difference. I don't drive my car that hard, but like to occasionaly get on it in 1st and 2nd when I'm feeling frisky. What would you recommend CF or something else?
Thanks Gus [ April 21, 2005, 11:08 AM: Message edited by: 1992gtdrop ]

I recommend it.
Little stiffer than stock, but not by a lot. No chatter, smooth, controllable engagement. Handled my 315rwhp '92 and LOTS of drag racing w/out incident. Hit lo 1.6 60ft's and ran 11.90 at 115.

It grabs GREAT, but I do feel it chatters quite a bit for my taste..

My DF CF doesn't chatter, pedal pressure is lightest of any 5.0 clutch I've tried. Grabs very good no slippage even with power and drag radials
