hmm i run a stock flywheel with a ram powergrip .. but that is way to much clutch for your set up
its sort of a preference thing too. some people (like me) dislike the spec clutch
my ram chatters alot in the low rpms
i think sweet2k ran a king cobra for a while and said he liked it

i know im not helping im sorry lol

I have heard good things about the king cobra clutch too but 1 problem they only make them for the t5 and t45 and I have 3650 and what do u mean that the powergrip is to much clutch?does it take to much pedal effort?and why don't u lik spec cluthes?

I've heard hit and miss about Spec clutches. A lot of LS1 guys really like them, my roommate had one in his GT. I just put one in my car, and I really like it. I had a King Cobra originally, it's essentially a stock clutch for a Cobra, so it'll hold better than your stock GT clutch but once you start making some power it will begin to slip on you. It also felt like it had a hard pedal as well. I had a McLeod directly after that, it was a really smooth clutch, much easier pedal pressure. I replaced that with the Spec Stage 2, it's been holding great so far. I also use a Fidanza aluminum flywheel with steel friction ring.

I believe there is a new king cobra out that fits the 3650.

Why not just buy something stronger than a King Cobra that you know will fit?

209STANG · July 3rd, 2009, 06:13 PM

Bcause I've heard nothn but good things about the king cobra clutch and its cheap and if they made it for the 3650 ima buy it but dought its true im probly gonna end up buying the spec stg 2 with billet alum flywheel
