Description
When your LS swap or crate motor build pushes past 800 horsepower, a single-disc clutch becomes the weak link. The McLeod RXT1000 twin disc clutch kit delivers 1000 hp/torque capacity while maintaining the street manners you need for daily driving and spirited cruising. This isn't a race-only solution that chatters at every stoplight - it's engineered for the enthusiast who demands serious holding power without sacrificing drivability.
The twin-disc design distributes clamping force across two 9.687-inch ceramic-faced friction discs, dramatically increasing torque capacity while reducing heat buildup under load. Sprung hubs absorb driveline shock during aggressive launches, and the ceramic facings provide slightly aggressive engagement with excellent release characteristics - firm enough to inspire confidence, smooth enough for stop-and-go traffic. McLeod's diaphragm pressure plate keeps pedal effort manageable even at 1000 horsepower levels.
The included billet steel flywheel features a 168-tooth ring gear for proper starter engagement in retrofit and crate motor applications. McLeod's patent-pending adapter ring is CNC-machined and anodized for precise alignment, while the Blanchard-ground floater plate uses multiple straps to minimize noise - critical details that separate a streetable twin-disc from a rattling race piece. The result is a complete clutch system that bolts up to your 9-bolt crank LS (2009-2013 LS9 and retrofit applications) and works with any 1-1/8 x 26-spline transmission.
Break-in requires 500-750 miles of stop-and-go driving to properly seat the ceramic facings - no dyno pulls or wide-open throttle until complete. Disable traction control during break-in and performance driving to prevent clutch slip. Made in the USA with lifetime technical support from Modern Driveline.
