From what others have told me, the Marlin clutch is not as snappy as the CF. I did not mind the CF Dual Friction I currently run in fact I actually really like it but I think the Marlin clutch is a lot smoother. Thats what is going in next so once I get it in I will report back.

Marlin's clutches are smooth!!  :yesnod:  Make sure you get the flywheel surfaced with the 0.026" step.

Go with the Marlin 1600 lb, it's a great clutch on and off road good firm peddle and excellent holding for crawling.
