I wasn't aware that the dual disc made the gear rollover noise worse. That definitely makes me rethink the dual disc. I also didn't realize that the posted HP/TQ numbers were at the rear wheels and the clutch you have would certainly be higher than I would ever tune to. I may just end up going the same route you did.
Thank you very much for providing all of the info!
I always thought it was the solid flywheel that made the gear rollover noise (whatever that actually is, it's a real thing, but 120k miles later guess I'm used to it.). Gear noise is like a "lugging alarm". Low rpms, mash the throttle, trans tells you.
I've only drove a dual disk with a NV trans, but liked the behavior of the clutch more than my single disk.
If I was starting over for the long term, I'd go dual disk.
Note, it will rattle though when disengaged, which takes away from the quietness of the newer Rams.
My 07 makes so much noise, one more rattle or vibration doesn't bother me. My newer clutch makes more noise than a dual disk, but opposite, when it's engaged in neutral. The 3 finger arm pressure plate on mine rattles like a 24V. Dual disk is actually a little quieter.
