I've had the ACT/stock flywheel combo for three years and 63000 miles without one issue. Most problems are due to them being installed/adjusted improperly. it's a good clutch...

I had a lockout issue when I put my ACT in, but the issue went away when I raised the clutch pedal up a few turns.

Ive put 50k on my ACT clutch and just recently started having the issue intermittently. I have an ACT HDSS with a GruppeS 10.5 lb Flywheel. I dont know what the deal is. I have always used ACT clutches in my cars Oh well time to upgrade unless ACT has a solution

lockout is caused by the clutch not fully disengaging, to resolve this to adjust the clutch pedal by a few turns.
