I’ve recently dealt with California Clutch, aka Clutchnet. Very knowledgeable. They made a custom clutch disc for me and uprated my stock TR6 pressure plate. Very responsive.

I was getting unacceptable clutch slip at the Kastner Cup initially on the 3-4 and then on the 2-3 shifts, to the point I could not apply full power.  It’s not oil, just heat and power, as the clutch disc has only a few events on it.  I’ve got over 180 hp at the crankshaft.

With the close ratio gears and welded diff, I need to do a fair amount of clutch slip around the paddock, and am also concerned about how the on-off nature of one these might further stress the differential.
