Whichever the case, I am certain that you will enjoy this editorial flashback. So, without further ado, let’s take a look back at Friction Science: Choosing The Right Clutch
In the original article, We talk about what can happen when overpowering an OE-spec clutch, and with the help of professionals from SPEC, Manta, and Quarter master clutches, we enlighten even the self-proclaimed clutch guru. Our professionals break down the criteria they use when helping enthusiasts decide which clutch is best suited to their particular application. Fort instance, do you know if the best clutch friction material for your ride would be Sintered-Metallic, Organic, Kevlar, or Bronze Metallic? If you read the article, you’ll find out.
Other frequently asked questions, revolves around the confusion about, “should I use a single or multi-disc clutch? Will an aluminum flywheel make my car perform better?” Once again, those questions get answered in the original article.
