Sorry for your loss. I have successfully been running the ACT HD PP for 15K miles (12K+ miles boosted) on my un-cracked stock block. My clutch safety switch is jumped and my blower is self lubed.
I have alos not had any trouble (Knock On Wood) however I attibuted this to the use of oils with ZDDP and staying off of the clutch as much as possible.

it holds power, not as loud/chattery/hard to modulate as the ACT 4 puck that I drove before confirming my decision to go with a puck clutch, not as hard as everyone says it is to drive

i was really debating rather or not to go with a puck clutch based on all the horror stories. it is really not that bad, obviously a little harder to drive smoothly than the stock clutch, but big deal.

Wow, I always wondered what contries flag was in your details. You are out in the middle of nowhere there.

You should make someone a deal, give you a block and crank and then help them with a vacation. I think I could spend a LOT of time there.

Good Luck

This sucks... For some reason I see this happening a LOT more on AP2's also. I wonder why.

As far as clutches, I dont want to get into the CC stage 4 etc and ruin this poor guys thread.
