Just got off the phone with Jeremy from Spec clutches. I told him two weeks ago when I ordered this clutch their website stated the rated capacity was 520ftlbs and today it says 440ftlbs.

He said let me check with the guys that make those changes. He came back 3 minutes later and said "no, there is no log of the change."

After a 25 minute phone call going back and forth about exceeding the rated capacity I have an RMA but no real comfort in how they are going to handle this situation.

My argument is the clutch slipped on my drive home. That was in 6th gear 15% throttle acceleration not even out of vacuum. Normal driving.

His argument is I am exceeding the rated tq capacity. 390ftlbs to the wheels is way more than 440ftlbs at the flywheel.

I agree, but their website two weeks ago said its holding capacity was 520ftlbs now they are saying 440ftlbs.

I told him I'm not going to be out $600 so we will see what happens when I get the clutch off and send it back to them.

I see me posting my experience in a couple of places like their facebook page, forums and what ever other form of media exposure I can get seen on.

Im sure they make good clutches but I got a bad one and they need to make it right. Plus I would not have ordered this clutch at 440ftlbs I only chose this clutch because it said 520ftlbs
