i think it might be fifty fifty over here... i dont personally have one, but i know a few have with mixed results...

i love my clutch from jsperformance

I have a level 3 in my car and love it. I had a slave cylinder go bad on me 5 months after I installed the clutch and Monster stood behind their warranty and gave me a new clutch and slave cylinder(the slave cylinder was from their kit but ultimately a GM part that ended up failing). Also, they were always quick to get back to my questions or calls, I'd definitely recommend them if you want to do a clutch job yourself.

thats awesome to hear ... i just wanted some input from some of you guys here cause i have seen alot of decent remarks on tech about them

j0n was without a car for MONTHS because of a monster clutch. whether they stood behind it or not, he didnt get a dime back and had no corvette because of it

I tried to pick out a nice aftermarket clutch when I did my t56 swap, but every single one I did research on had 20 people saying it blew up on them, chattered like crazy, or started slipping in the first month.

I got sick of it and just bought a perfection (Zoom) stock ls6 replacement from advance auto. I got that and a slave with 20% off orders over $200 and free shipping on it. Came out to like $250 shipped for pressure plate, disc, slave, throwout bearing, pilot bearing, alignment tool, etc so I'm putting around on that until I really need a bigger/badder clutch

I'm looking at the Monsters too to replace my original 70k clutch. I just want a good clutch that can hold up to a few passes once a year.
I talked to Josh at JS about his custom clutch but the fact that his is non adjustable and he don't take CC puts him out for me. I just put well into the 5 figures in cash down on my house and am tapped. I would love to use Josh since he did a good job on my nephews car and he is 5 mins down the road.

I guess I'll just wait until it blows then I'll have to make a decision.
Sometimes I miss the old days when there wasn't as many choices and as much internet B.S to wad through.

well the positive comments definately out weighed the negative.. i ordered my monster level 2 with the slave so ill let you guys know how it works out

i got a monster level 6 clutch and a tick master cylinder and tick level 3 viper tranny, and i drive this car almost everyday, that clutch grabs great but does have sum chatter cus its the roughest single disk clutch they sell , no biggy, i would hightly recomend a monster clutch, you can buy a complete kit from tickperformance awsome guys to deal with,

I wouldn't trust the opinions on LS1tech. Much of it is either people who don't know what they are talking about, or people trying to sell you something. Most of the LS1tech heavy hitters that I recall are gone.

To answer your question, I made my choice with my wallet. I have a JS clutch. It's great.
