Northern Canadian SHO

[Mahu24]

Hello all, I am from northern Canada and purchased a 2016 SHO PP with 42,000mi in November. Came with H&R springs, Roush intake, Weathertech liners, and 3rd cat delete from previous owner.
Already purchased tuner, catless down pipes, hot pipes, and planning for bigger turbos and fuel pump for spring.
Also attempting to get clutches made for our platform from Ukraine.

Haha that day was warm, -2. We had 10 days of -40 or lower and it started every time like nothing !

Yeah it's a toasty 0°C here right now.
Seems like us Canucks are doing Parts locating on this forum lately. I'm working on camshafts right now. Clutches would be a nice addition if you can get through the red tape.

Nice -8 here. Been warm this week.
There is already a company making LSD for the RDU and the transmission. It's on Facebook if you are interested.

I've had a lot of companies not respond in my search. Deka Clutches is who I'm talking to currently. They make clutches for DCT's so hopefully they can help us!

Yeah that's the company I located that makes the lsd. I located them while making a comparison of the GM version of the 6f55. Internal components between the two Transmissions are almost exactly the same. Including the differential housings. That was almost a year ago.

Must have been around the time the Facebook post was made. I just purchased a SHO so still finding things out, especially on this forum there is a lot of interesting projects

I found the company middle of Jan last year and told Andrew, (802SHO) here on the forum Feb 8 2022. I had been a little concerned about the safety of using a welded differential in his awesome build. So I put myself to task to find a safer option. Strangely enough traction Concepts didn't think they would fit. LOL Andrew had to order the part from them without telling them what it was going in. Just so they wouldn't argue with him.
802SHO has had a go at trying to get a set of clutches made himself. Unfortunately the company that he had convinced to try, hasn't seen fit to release clutches.
So if you manage to get the clutches, it would be incredible for everyone on the platform.

Well Raybestos is a complete loss. I have emailed them every week for the past 5 weeks and never get any sort of tangible response. I'm guessing if I can get Deka to make them, they would be on the pricier side. But if it holds up, definitely worth it

Got a company out of UK that can 100% produce the clutches for us. Just need to be sent a sample of the OEM ones to replicate in a better friction material
