Why don't you modify the clutch? If your clutch is slipping all the time, then you'll have to replace it soon anyway.

all depends on left foot! hahaha

just don't ride the clutch at all....and no fast take offs. Just bog it down on take off and no flat shifting.

Its when you go to wheels spin and forget you have a full car load and it happens to be a very sticky road.. you jam it in second and wait for the car to start stepping out and smoke.... well somthing is smoking thats for sure...

Thats why my Brass Button clutch is dead... and 7000RPM takeoffs...

Kevlar is ok if you have a good pressure plate.

Yeah, funny when one legs is twice as large as the other :hehe:

I have used Kevlar and loved it, it lasted a long time with alot of Hell.
I also had the problem at one stage of having a too lighter Pressure Plate.. that is annoying!! Slips just when you don't want it too...
