Waiting on my DD Ceramic to get here. I'm going to have Fleece put it in since I don't have time or all the tools to do it right now. I'll finally get to see how hard my race tune pulls since my single disc starts to slip right when I get the turbo lit :)

I've defiantly been impressed on how my dd has held up so far. You still on the mods that are in your sig?

^^^ Yes hopefully my power numbers will increase as I'm sure when I did the last dyno run my clutch was done... because its REALLY done now :)

Got the truck back last night, still breaking it in, its got a little squeal on first take off, and it has the gear-roll sound when sitting in neutral. Other than that and needing to be broke in I like it, believe it or not my pedal-pressure is decreased to disengage the clutch. I had a new slave cylinder and pilot bearing put in.
So far I'm very happy with it, once it's broke in I'll give it some good flogging to see how she feels.

If someone was to ask me to find any problems with it, the ONLY things that I could say is the disk rattle and "bouncy" take offs can be irritating only when your trying to be quiet or have an elderly in the vehicle and want to keep the driving as smooth as possible. Other then that, well, what can I say! When the clutch is engaged, its engaged!! :D
I've ran mine on PPE Hot race level 10 for a while and since I had to take my 5th gear (6th on the stick) out again. I took my clutch out and shipped it back to southbend to be strapped. Brian is also gonna check the condition of the clutch. I'll let you guys know how it has held up under my heavy foot!

I got 97K out of my first DD plus about 30 hooks to a sled. The next one I got about 70K on right now and it's still holding good.

You were running 600hp for most of those 97k miles? 100k out of a clutch that has seen some hard times.... I'm liking that!!
I see you added two more trucks to your fleet! Cow's just keep eating more or what?? :p:

Honestly the sound doesn't really bother me too much, the truck is loud as it is, and only makes sound when sitting at a light and taking off.

450-500hp on that one. Once we got to the 600hp mark I went to a DDD :D. It was pulling my 33' tandem dually flatbed most of those miles at those power levels though :rolleyes:.
Yeah IDK why but I picked up two more. The price was right so I grabbed them. I gave one to my brother and I'm building the other one into a new ranch/feed truck.
