Clutch help
Well it's time for a clutch. I don't have any motor mods and the only thing I'll probably be doing is cams in the future. I really want a soft pedal. So what clutch do you all recommend and why.
Thanks in advance! |

Re: Clutch help
I read good things about the Exedy Mach 400 Stage 1, and horrible reviews about a Centerforce Dual Friction, which is probably what is in mine because it sucks.

Re: Clutch help
Get a Zoom ZVT I have one and it locks up like a lock with precision and ease. It is softer than the stock clutch and gets you into the power quickly. Get a F1 pressure plate I got one off ebay its lighter than the stocker so car powers up faster. If your going cams you want a good clutch and flywheel. If you have the money go a double clutch unit if you really want a softer pedal. Zoom and Centerforce make good ones but you going to spend more than a thousand dollars.

Re: Clutch help
Spec 2+ is good, I Ran that before I upgraded my spline shaft after it broke.
I would suggest the Ram Dual Disc clutch, its expensive but the pedal feels stock. I running it now, its great in traffic. |

Re: Clutch help
My centerforce has been great. I also installed one in my cousin's bullitt. You might want to remove the counter weights if you do though. I made an install video if you are interested:

Re: Clutch help
Don't get luk. I go the luk stage 2 and it has been nothing but problems. The Kevlar clutch keeps frying itself against the flywheel because it can't take any slippage at all. don't get luk.

Re: Clutch help
Rated at 415 rwtq, probably overkill for him, at 435 rwtq wonder what would be a good option for me..sorry hijack, he is probably good with Stage 1.
