SLongshot fits under stock cover....regular lock out u need a lock out cover......same concept one is cheap - no cover

That's kinda true.

There are two versions of the slingshot, one does fit under the stock clutch cover and it replaces your pressure plate. The one that fits under your stock cover is more expensive than a standard slingshot and a direct drive style...but it's replacing your pressure plate as said.

 

The other, like I use, goes under an extended lockout cover. It goes over the top of the stock assembly just like a "direct drive" style does.

 

The Slingshot uses ball bearings in a ramped groove that forces the ball bearings against the outer plate, forcing it against the pressure plate to lock as you go faster.

 

The Direct drive style works off speed as well, but uses weighted arms that "Swing out" to apply the pressure to the pressure plate.

 

Both work, I've used both, I like the slingshot myself.
