Okay. Here's the deal.
Clutch number one - Blew out from the hub from snatching a gear real hard. Take full responsibility.
Clutch number two - Tonight. I was literally just CRUISING the highway. Gave it not even a quarter inch of a gas pedal action, and, SNAP!, POW!, blew the clutch again. Same symptons, so I suspect that it went the same way. I won't know untill I can get it swapped out.
Now that we're caught up, I need some help. At this rate, I don't think I can stay OEM clutch anymore. So I got to thinking, upgrade to a stage 1, but who sells that anyways? I can't remember. Anyways, so I'm thinking stage 2. I know everyone says SVT stock clutch is perfectly fine with a 3L, but I'm kinda turned off from the OEM since this has happened twice now. Oh by the way, I forgot to tell you, I get to officially say I go through clutches like I change my oil. 5000 miles on this one this time.
So, I know there's a lot of talk about bad things with aftermarket clutches, Specs with the springs popping out, F1 being repainted stock stuff, and all sorts of other things. What are your opinions/suggestions/advice? I'm ALL EARS, so let me know what's up!
Thanks.
