Yes to Shell Rotella T and NO to Barnett Clutches. They never did perform well but they do chatter nicely just when you don't want them to. :laugh: Stock KZ fibers and steels, check steels for flatness and deglaze them and you'll be happy. Stock motor on a good clutch doesn't really need stiffer springs, maybe new ones to replace tired ones. More motor, more spring, A whole lot more motor, lockup is your friend.
