With Rick's 4.57 rear gears, a reinforced Comptech differential housing, and an upgraded clutch, how safe would clutch drops be? What would become the new weak link in the system?

Also, what would be a good choice for the clutch upgrade?

 

I would think drive shaft, good clutch choice is the ACT street strip I think you can get the package (pressure plate, disk, throw out baring) for about 700 bucks.

 

I figured the drive shaft would be next, how much can it take?

 

Try axles.

 

I agree. This is what I have!


Make sure it has the 2600lbs pressure plate

 

-Bump...will the driveshaft and axles hold the extra strain? I don't plan on any FI, so extra HP isn't a concern.

 

You should have a pretty strong drivetrain.
The only REAL weakpoint (although my stocker has taken MANY 9000RPM clutch drops with sticky S02's and no failures) is the stock diff.

With stock HP, you should really be pretty safe.

 

Just what I wanted to hear! Thanks for the info.
