ViperNC Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 I just installed the Shelby performance clutch which is made by Ace. Twin disc, aluminum flywheel, and comes with the 13'/14' Ford slave cylinder. Very pleased overall with the bite and feel of this clutch. A friend of mind has the McLeod RXT and now wishes he would have gone with this one. Food for thought.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCD Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 McLeod RXT!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraracing Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Installed the Spec SST for the second time and am still real disappointed, won't release the input shaft at WOT and won't power shift Sent first back to Spec and they said no probs but replaced the discs anyways The Shelby clutch really impressed me on the quality and hear that the performance is awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobra567 Posted June 10, 2016 Report Share Posted June 10, 2016 Installed two Specs and hated the chatter. Replaced it with the McLeod and its perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondo Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Myself and others had the revised Ford clutch/flywheel/slave cylinder installed with impressive and long lasting results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A buddy has one of those in his 07... I had his car at my place for a few days and had to move it around, the clutch is nice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackcad55 Posted July 8, 2016 Report Share Posted July 8, 2016 Owners around this area like the Centerforce DYAD # 04115705, so I guess there are several good choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shack Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 I'm starting to search around for a new clutch myself (2008 GT500 stock), trying to decided between the one on Shelby Performance - ACE clutch - or the McLeod RXT. [ Sorry, only thing I see is The Kurgan standing in the middle of the battlefield yelling "MACLEOD!!" ] Haven't seen much more in searches about the Shelby / Ace clutch. How has it been holding up? Product page says I need the clutch slave from TSB 10-3-8, but haven't done the TSB. Is that something that can be purchased separately (guessing yes, but better to ask). Any other parts required from the TSB that I won't have in the stock 2008? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperNC Posted October 12, 2016 Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I have the Shelby clutch from ACE. The clutch pedal is fairly heavy, but I like the feel and engagement which is very fast. You have to get used to it, but remember this is basically a full out racing clutch. If you are looking for a more comfortable clutch pedal with less agressive engagement then I would recommend you choose something else.
