1ST GEN.

I AM PLANING ON GETTING A NEW SOUTH BEND CLUTCH. I WOULD LIKE IT TO HOLD AT LEAST 550HP BUT I NOT SURE IF I SHOULD GO SINGLE DISK OR DD. I DO REGULARLY TOW ABOUT 14000LBS. AND MY TRUCK IS A 99 3500 5SPD AND SHOULD I ASO GET A BIGGER INPUT SHAFT?

Put up some info on your truck and bombs. What hp are you at now, and future plans.

I would say you will want a Double Disc. I would recomend calling Peter at South Bend. He will get you in the best clutch for your needs, not the most expensive clutch that he has available.
South Bend has excelent customer service.

CALL PETER!

I called him about a used SBC DD I'm buying, to ask if it needed any work before sticking it in the truck, and he said there are a few things it might need, and offered to work out a "deal!"

He also told me not to sled pull with it, which is fine with me (2wd) .

I bought the clutch because I'm wanting to end up around 425-450 with well over 1000 ft lbs, and tow A LOT, sometimes in excess of 30K. I wanted a good, well-mannered clutch for all the street miles I put on.

He did tell me that if I DO hook to the sled, he can rebuild it for ~$500 NOT WHAT I NEEDED TO HEAR< NOW I'LL HAVE HAVE TO FIND OUT

Good Luck,
Chris
