    What clutch to get

    I am debating between getting another King Cobra clutch or possibly a Spec Stage 1 clutch. I have heard the spec's hit harder than the King Cobra which is great in all but I am also only running a WC T-5 with stock axles on ET drags launching at 5800. Not sure if going with the spec will be any harder on the rest of my drivetrain or not. Need some advise and thoughts here.

    I ran a King Cobra clutch with a T5 and drag radials... Loved this clutch.

    I'm talking slicks not D/R's

    I don't think it matters which clutch you are going to end up breaking the tranny or more likely an axle.

    I thought the King Cobra was suppose on the heavy side when it comes to pedal effort.

    Centerforce dual friction, I have had a few of these over the years and loved them. I also had a spec stage 3, which is great, but more pedal effort than the centerforce. I went 11.20's on the centerforce, with a few changes I went 10.80's on the spec.

    I had a king cobra and changed to a dual friction. I like the king cobra better. The dual friction can get pretty aggressive when it gets a little heat in it.
