ORIGINAL: vertigo performance

2speeds and bashing aren't always a great thing only because by the time you hit second you have to slow down but some people have a need for speed so there should be a market there.


That depends on your area to run in I guess, for me a 2 speed would be a great thing as I have lots of open space out here in West Texas.  Plus it could be an advantage to tailer your gear ratios at the track.

But I don't want to derail your thread so I will try to stay on topic from now on.

(NO MORE BROKEN BOLTS)
(in fact no more bolts at all)

VPP1652-17 should be hitting the shelves mid August.


Vertigo Performance Clutch Bells and Pinions are getting close.
We designed and tested several concepts over the past months then settled for the simplest tried and trued method.
- We used a 7mm hex shaft
- Custom machined 17T hardened steel pinion gear
- 6mm Locking nut. (The nut is self tightening thanks to the rotation of the shaft)
- When pinion is taken off the bell cannot fall back into clutch covers out of reach which causes the possibility of incorrect installation of stock bell/pinion design.
- Completely eliminates bolts that can break.
- Prevents any wobbling between the pinion and bell which is common with the stock design of keyed bell/pinion

Retail price $60.00 (Bell/Pinion combo)
Pinions of various sizes available in the future..

Status: offline 		THATS HOT ! nice !

I have Vertigo vented bell and clutch cover on my 'Ja since it was first introduced 2 years ago onto the market Its been highly reliable and I added a custom heatsinc and 15mm hex head bolt to hold the pinion on and have had ZERO breakage. THis new design is definatley an improvement also !

Nice work Clayton !
