OK, i know Southbend is the way to go as most say, and i have heard some bad things about Valair's double disk, but how is there single disk clutches? i can get one for a great deal.....any help would be great....

i ran one of the valair setups for about 1100 miles and then pulled it back out for inspection found some shocking things.

here take a look at this.

SHOCKING CLUTCH FINDINGS you have too see!!! - TDR Roundtable

South Bend's quality and performance are second to none. You certainly get a lot of product when you get a SBC. Spend your money once - it'll pay in the long run.

Rob i think i had read your post in the past and that was what rised the question....but i have an NV4500 and didn't know if they have the same issue???

thanks for the replies......anyone else????

I can not speak for the nv4500. all i know is that the product southbend makes is like FarmBoy Diesel said is second to none. i would say just do it right the first time.

Much cheaper to do it right the first time.

I have the new VALAIR set up and it is working great, and no problems. I have put almost 10K miles on it now
