While not a twin disc, I'm running a Mcleod "dual performance" disc with their 22# billet flywheel and diaphragm pressure plate per Red's suggestion.

Very smooth take-up, surprisingly light, and is standing up very well at approximately 650rwhp. Very easy to manage in traffic.

Would it hold up to my HP level with slicks and drag launches? I'm not sure, but it doesn't slip when fully loaded down in 3rd or 4th gear.

If you're going to run street tires I'd suggest this combo. It's been working very well for me (about 10,000 miles on it now) and the cost is quite reasonable.

I've been looking at it too..... I'm not worried about it hooking or holding up..... I'm worried about it killing my left leg if I ever get stuck in stop and go traffic...

How's the pedal pressure ??? I'm not going hydraulic.....
Ned, shoot me a PM if you want to feel the effort on my setup. It's really quite light.
