I'm thinking about getting rid of my Ram C4 conversion clutch and trying the 7.25" V-Drive 2plate clutch from QuarterMaster. My current setup weighs 29 lbs. total while this new QM unit would weigh ~ 13 lbs. total including the flexplate.

Am I crazy (don't answer that) or has anybody tried this?

TIA

Wow... It would be an interesting clutch... so light, it might be a bitch to launch.

We use the same type of setup (avitar) about 7 lbs.
Taking off does take some practice.
Once you're out of your pit spot, who cares?
You'll love the revs.

I think I'll give it a shot. ~$750.00 total but hopefully it will pay for itself in the long run. The down side is that I need to have it wrapped up in a couple of weeks.
