Valair dual disc clutch for 6.4L!

7.3powerstroke00 · Feb 25, 2012

Yes you read it right, I picked my ride up last night from Valair clutch with there very first 6.4 powerstroke dual disc clutch! I've gotta say I am really impressed, the pedal is soft and easy, it's smooth and quiet, and best of all it's all from parts made in the good ole USA!

I helped a friend install one in a dodge. Way smoother and quieter than my south bend dual disc in my 6.4.

Well I better get ahold of Heath then. Have you tried any of the bigger tunes yet?

It will be a few weeks before they are ready to ship.

FYI Heath no longer works at Valair

The customers we've got running the 300 tune have all been around the 550-565hp range.

That's good I was hoping to be atleast 550

The clutch is holding up great on the 300 tune! Installed a 5 inch exhaust last night, now time for an intake and some dyno runs!

Made any runs yet???
Do you still like the clutch? How boost do you lose during shifts?

How's the engagement for daily driving/in traffic? Tow with it yet?

B585Ford · Apr 5, 2012

I'm interested in this also.

7.3powerstroke00 · Apr 5, 2012

Engagement is a little grabby but being ceramic it will be, I have not towed with it yet...
I have not made any dyno runs yet, the place I am going to use is suppose to be doing a dyno day soon! And yes I really like this clutch alot!

B585Ford · Apr 5, 2012

Did you lose anything in shifting speed?

7.3powerstroke00 · Apr 6, 2012

Not that I could tell, it only had about 55k miles when the clutch was put in so the tranny is pretty tight.... If anything might have helped with shifting because you can push the pedal about 1/3 of the way in and it is released where you can shift...

Installed afe stage II intake today! The more I drive the truck the more I like the clutch, it's still doing awesome! Still workin on gettin strapped to some rollers, the guys have not had the dyno day yet....
