Pucked Disk Clutches. What are the downs
I have a 4 puck stage 3 Spec clutch. I heard that they are no that great on the street everyday. I am going turbo very soon so I thought that it would be a good clutch. I had one in my stang and in my LS1. They were both pucked. I just though that they were a little rough when you just get moving.

Since it has springs, it should engage more 'friendlier' than an unsprung one. Unsprung ones hit hard.

Upsides: Engages fast.
Downside: Engages harsh. Wears fast.

I couldn't get used to how quick and hard it engaged on my HB for regular street driving. For launching and tearing through gears :thumbup:
