F1 Racing Clutch/Flywheel kit from gripforce.com

Anyone use or have experience with them?

I have read both Great and terrible reviews?

I know you get what you pay for and they cost less, just wondering if anyone has ever used one and how it felt/lasted?

Wow, that's only $200? Where at? I know my clutch in the 91 slips from time to time as it is so stock isn't working out for me. Ceramic would rock, especially being pucked. I think I want to go with a 4 puck when I get one though. A lighter disc = easier on the synchros, and with a 284, anything easier on synchros is a good thing. Have you googled that clutch to find reviews on it yet?

Ya I googled, seems to be 50 50
some are extremely happy other are extremely unhappy lol.

After engine swap, the trans will be next, but I will need something to start so thinking to go with anything cheap at first.
