Clutch Questions

[littlecrunch2000]

So I am getting a new clutch here real soon. I have a few questions.

1. When is the right time to replace the slave cylinder? Is that included with the clutch package from Monster?

2. In regards to the rated hp on each level of Monster clutches, is that the rwhp or flywheel hp?

3. There is a direct fit option and also an F-Body fit option. Obvisouly we have the GTO, but why offer the F-Body fittment option?

Any info is greatly appreciated. And those with Monster clutches, please feel free to chime in! Thanks!!

My understanding is that the GTO and Fbody are the same with the exception being the slave cylinder. You can save a ton of money by getting an Fbody slave and transferring the GTO fitting over to it.

This is correct,op you may want to look at the reviews from other clutches as well.

snl will include the slave. I opted for the f body one and had my installer do the swap with the fitting.

i bought a stg 3 in hopes id have this thing boosted already. I do not. and i must tell you. It chatters ridiculously. its because i've been daily driving it. you have to romp on it to make it go away. I think having a tick adjustable would make it better because i could lower the engagement point.

I recently bought a dd so now I wont have to drive it as often and I can take it easy with the traffic driving and get rid of the chatter.

I spoke to Steve from SNL and they said they include the GTO direct fit slave. I wonder if the GTO slave will be better than the F-body one for the chattering. I dont really want to have to invest more into the clutch with a tick, so I am hoping I can keep the clutch happy. I think I am going to go with the Stage 3, but am still doing my homework. Thanks for the help so far!

yours is cammed so that will probably help too. Its just the traffic driving and light to light driving that make me have to slip it slightly. people either don't move out the way or they roll up on me too fast and I dont get the chance to take my time and balance out the pedals quickly to avoid slipping. if you take off fairly fast then there's definitely no chatter.

My previous car was turbocharged and had a staged clutch as well and it was WAY simpler to drive than this one is. It's taken alot to get used to.

Respoke to Steve and Chris with SNL (Amazing customer service!!!) and they suggested I just go find an empty road or a blue oval and let the clutch do some "spirited driving" and all should be fine. Just a little fun time will cure the noise right up....which I think I can live with. :D

theyre correct. there's a straight rd pretty much 1/4 mile right before i enter my neighborhood. i use that to open it up haha.
