Built for the Street, Ready for Action

The McLeod RST clutch was designed for real-world performance — not dyno queens or trailer-only builds. It thrives in daily-driven cars that see boost, hard pulls, and aggressive driving, while still behaving in traffic. This twin disc clutch kit gives you the freedom to push your build without constantly worrying about slip or drivability issues.

Why the RST Hits the Sweet Spot

Race clutches can hold power, but they usually come with harsh engagement, heavy pedals, and zero forgiveness. The McLeod RST Twin Disc Clutch strikes the perfect balance — strong enough to support serious upgrades, smooth enough to enjoy every mile. It’s the clutch you install when you’re done replacing stock parts and ready for real performance.

What to Expect

Like most high-performance twin disc clutches, some light noise or chatter during initial break-in is normal. Follow McLeod’s recommended break-in procedure and you’ll be rewarded with consistent engagement, long-term durability, and confidence under load.

Bottom Line

The McLeod RST Twin Disc Clutch Kit delivers serious holding power, smooth street drivability, and no-excuses performance. If your build is making power and you still want to enjoy driving it, this is the clutch that keeps up.
