4 puck racing act clutch is extremely harsh, makes noise, and when i pop the clutch it sounds like the asphalt beneath is hitting the bottom of the car!!!!! just curious if such a hard engaging clutch will be bad for the tranny or engine or whatever......I appreciate anyones 2 cents :idea:

If the clutch dosent slip then the differentials will take the beating and may break the drivetrain.

I have 15,000 on my car already, bevo, what do you suggest i do because breaking the drivetrain is obviously not what i intend on doing :cry:

why are you running such an aggresive clutch? I do know someone with a lot of mods and a 6puck clutch and he never brooke the drivetrain so maybe youll be ok.

Im using this clutch to try and shave off a few tenths off quarter mile and i got a good deal on it, its drivability is perfect once i got used to it, it just feels so crazy when i pop it its getting me nervous

I killed my 5 puck in 7k miles and the tranny is okay so far even if the clutch wasn't...
