Re: Look what SPEC did for me.

no I am saying that it is weird that your trans is making noise and mine is not. Although my clutch is chattering.

That smiley is not "weird"... it's "werd" meaning you agree with the other person.

Re: Look what SPEC did for me.

Thanks alot for the great explanation!

So, is this "chatter" harmful to the clutch assembly?

Also, been reading about different clutches. One in paticular, claiming to be "the finest clutch", and "guaranteed to never chatter", and so on.....
Is it possible to have a high performance clutch, with high clamp loads to handle high HP, light pedal, smooth engagement, and no chatter?

Thanks!
Chris

Yeah it is actually. For me, it is the SPEC stage 3. I have run the Fords and Centerforces and they all sucked compared to SPEC. You just need to get used to it. They are the best in my opinion....period. Just my .02
