If you aren’t aware of issues with single plate clutches at high rpms you’re either new, or don’t pay attention.I didn't miss any point. Singles are good for up to a certain point then they must be changed for something that can hold more torque and you're right that is 99% of the DSMs out there. I am not aware of people complaining that quick shifting a single disc is a problem, but neither a twin nor a single can shift faster than the other, that is a push. I figured out long ago about getting the disengagement correct resulted in accurate fast shifts, heck Jacks put up a bunch of videos a Looooong time ago about this issue and clutch drag which are related. Carry on.
Also, plenty of people have run 9’s, and even 8’s with a single plate clutch.
There are single plate setups that hold 700+ lb/ft. The issue up until recently was that trying to get them to shift at 9,000+ rpms was almost useless.
The op and myself must have just put countless hours of work into fixing a problem we didn’t really have.
