    affordable performance clutch?

    Looking for my vg33et 84. I've looked at many. And have read tons and tons of reviews. What is the most affordable clutch for max of 400tq? Thanks in advance.

    Cheap, Fast, Reliable - pick any two

    Go with the Southbend. I used to run an ACT that couldn't hold the torque. Talked to Joe @ Z speed and now making 550HP and TQ st the wheels with 0 slipping with mild pedal pressure and engagement. Easily one of the best bang for buck parts for your modified Z.

    Being in Canada I actually spoke to a few vendors about shipping, of course I excluded the ones overcharging before I made my list, but Joe worked with me on shipping

    Dave @ SBC even recommended him to me…

    Since then I bought some leftover clutch discs from him cheap too, he managed to stuff 2 into a medium flat rate box haha :P

    I have a DXD (Southbend) Stage 3 daily in my '87 and love it. Pedal is firm, but not difficult. I will be getting a Stage 4+ for my 88T when the time is right.
