FAQ
How much power will this clutch hold?It’s positioned for roughly 400 HP street/tow builds with ~900 ft-lbs capability when paired with the 3400# plate and included flywheel and hydraulics. Choose a dual disc or the Kevlar/Ceramic upgrade if you’re above that range.
Does this kit include a flywheel and hydraulics?Yes. A new G56 solid flywheel, bearings, hardware, alignment tool, and the pre-bled Valair NMU70HYD-03 hydraulics are included.
Will it drive like stock?Brass-woven organic facings keep engagement smooth with higher heat capacity than stock—ideal for daily drivers and tow rigs.
G56 vs NV5600—how do I confirm?Check the transmission ID tag/case shape. Early 2005 trucks may have an NV5600; if so, pick an NV5600-specific clutch.
