Hinson Clutch Basket

Well ive been looking into a way to extend clutch life, and ive been reading about these and they say they keep the clutches cooler and all that. Has anyone used this or have any opinions on it?

not sure how it would keep clutch cooler.. unless different material that doesnt heat soak plates. or its got different oiling holes to help. be nice to know if it would help.

I don't see the R1 listed on the Hinson website.

I'm currently shopping for a basket, and the two options I see are Falicon and APE. Let us know when you get the basket in. Maybe snap some pictures and whatever else you can tell us about it.

If you guys do the McCoys oil line mod then you will get everything you need on the clutches i'd bet. Looks extremely effective...
