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.<br /><br />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?<br /><br /><br />Thanks<br />Gus <img border="0" alt="[patriot]" title="" src="graemlins/patriot.gif" /><br /> <br /> <small>[ April 21, 2005, 11:08 AM: Message edited by: 1992gtdrop ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>cdog301</b> <br /><small>Member # 5136</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,3,21,11,2,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Zoom king cobra (kevlar) works great in my coupe! <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>FasterDamnit</b> <br /><small>Member # 442</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2005,3,21,11,4,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I recommend it.<br /><br />Little stiffer than stock, but not by a lot.
