Been on the car for 6000 miles, car running 410bhp/390 lb/ft of torque.
Clips of the cover have come away and have been rattling round the bell housing.

Sorry, I cant host pictures on this works computer, but the thread is located here on a UK board if you want to see the pictures.


Im gutted!

What kind of F/I are you running?

 

APS TT, APS 2.5", Test pipes, APS Plenum.

 

What's the likely reason for failure?

 

Cant view those pics. Those power numbers are WELL within the clutch's ability, maybe a defective unit? Bad install? Im not 100% sure as to what your problem is or how it would happen.

 

Sorry, I cant access any image hosting sites, due to websense on my works pc, and i wont be home for another 4 weeks (offshore).

Basically, the retaining/alignment clips have snapped off and are rattling round the bellhousing. Clutch material is scored to hell as well.

What do I go for next??

Currently rebuilding for approx 550 HP.

 

Start looking at ATS clutches and some serious $$$$

 

Was hoping for something a bit cheaper to be honest. Im already a bit over budget on the rebuild, but am open to suggestions.
Not everyone is running ATS on built engines, what are peoples opinions on other brands?
