South Bend's race-only Stage 2 Drag clutch kit, rated to 390 ft-lb of torque. Built with a puck-type disc for minimal rotational mass and reduced pedal travel, designed for drag racing, pulling, and drifting applications.
Not for street use. This is a dedicated race clutch — engagement is abrupt by design, and the puck disc sacrifices street driveability for reduced inertia and faster torque transfer. For daily/street use with occasional track time, see the South Bend Stage 3 Daily or Stage 3 Endurance kits instead.
Includes a 22lb CNC-machined solid flywheel.
