Description
When you're pushing serious horsepower through a street-driven LS build, most clutches force you to choose: brutal pedal effort for track-day holding power, or easy street manners that slip under load. The McLeod RXT 1200 twin disc clutch kit eliminates that compromise, delivering a full 1,200 HP capacity with a pedal feel that won't leave you with a charley horse after a downtown rush-hour commute.
The secret is McLeod's increased diaphragm pressure design combined with twin ceramic-lined friction discs. The higher clamp load handles extreme torque without the leg-press pedal effort typical of high-capacity clutches, while the ceramic facings provide smooth, progressive engagement that's surprisingly streetable. The strapped floater plate keeps everything quiet at idle and low RPM—no twin-disc rattle to announce your presence at every stoplight.
This complete kit includes a billet aluminum flywheel specifically machined for LS engines with the 6-bolt crankshaft pattern found on 1997-2013 Gen III and Gen IV applications. The lightweight aluminum construction reduces rotational mass for quicker throttle response and faster rev-matching, while the 168-tooth ring gear ensures reliable starter engagement. The 1-1/8-inch x 26-spline disc hub fits TREMEC T56, TR-6060, and other popular transmission swaps.
Note: 2004-2007 Cadillac CTS-V applications require a slave cylinder spacer (McLeod part number 1377-950, sold separately). Proper break-in is critical—500-750 miles of stop-and-go city driving with 1,200-1,500 clutch actuations before any wide-open throttle, drag racing, or dyno tuning. Made in the USA.
