#Handshaker manual transmision full

At really low power, like sub 400 wheel, it seems like no problem. Hence the fact that I worked so hard to keep a single disc for so long, and beyond that, to run such a lightweight single at that. Go weigh the clutch disc from a 550hp camaro, then do the same from a 550hp superduty. By the time it will hold, the mass is too great for your syncros to overcome quickly, and forget about service life out of them. There is no clutch that will do both at that power level.

Beyond that you don't have anymore room to play between the clutch needed to hold the power, vs the clutch needed to be able to shift with speed. The whole manual trans thing pretty much goes out the window at ~550rwhp. Then I converted to a Cummins and it got REAL fun lol

It instantly dropped my ET's to an 8.09, so almost a full second. I converted to a PCS controlled BTS and there is no comparison to a built auto. It basically just sucks all around to seriously race a 5spd.

The best time I ever ran with a 5spd and the 7.3 was an or so in the 1/8th. This is infinitely worse if you have an idiot in the other lane taking forever to stage, it nukes the clutch plates because they get so hot. That being said, leaving isnt that hard but it is hard on the clutch, basically I'd pull in, turn the 1st bulb on, go to about 3k rpms and slip it until i had about 25psi of boost or so then ease in and wait on the tree to come down. It is brutally hard on clutches, you have to leave in 3rd because 1st and 2nd are pointless, as soon as the turbo lights you are out of gear. I tried for a whole summer a couple of years ago, Modded H2e and Hybrids putting about 550 to the tires with a dual disc. It sucks horribly to try to race one of these trucks with a manual.
