I need a new clutch soon so i figure i might as well take car of some other stuff in that area. I am thinking of a lightweight flywheel. Our cars don't have much power and thats just how it will be unless i swap engines so i wana try to get as much out of the 7AFE as I can. How much will the ASP underdrive pulley, and flywheel help power and responsiveness. Also, how much power am I loosing from the clutch slipping? What kind of difference did the new clutch make in acceleration from the old one. Im kinda used to it i guess.

double clutching has nothing to do with upshifting, it only works on downshifting.
the whole double clutching while drag racing thing is a myth perpetuated by 'that aweful movie'. remember the quote "granny shifting, not double clutching like you should". once again, double clutching has nothing to do with upshifting or accelerating or drag racing. maybe you guys are thinking of power shifting, but regardless its not double clutching. |
