ACT Installed and lovin it!!!

I had my ACT HD street disc and pressure plate put in about a week ago and have since put about 500 miles or so on it. A little smelly and hard at first but now it has NEARLY STOCKLIKE DRIVEABLILITY, ENGAGES GREAT AND NOOOOOO CHATTER OR NOISE. Props to ACT for a great affordable clutch and if your stock clutch goes out, please dont hesitate to go with this one, you wont be dissapointed. Dirk if you read this i was just wondering what the warranty coverage is and proper break in time.
Happy New Year EVERYONE!!!

As long as the 500 miles are city driving,not a highway ride 500 miles round trip.

I believe ACT clutches cost around 500-600? Do you need to use any stock clutch parts with the ACT in order for it to work?

i just grinded my flywheel for $45. It's cheaper than spending another $200.
