New clutch

[Big Mo]

I need to a new clutch kit. I will not be drag racing with it. I would like to know what manufacturer or set up you might recommend? I have looked at a lot and thought you may be willing to help.

have the old one rebuilt/put a new clutch and t.o. bearing and don't forget the pilot bearing in the crank! you can get that one out with wet newspaper and a punch or a bolt that fits snug in the bearing and hit the bolt and the newspaper will push out the bearing

Would you believe when I took it apart there was no bushing in it. Bearing caps main & rod were not matched. Do I need to do anything to the pressure plate? It looks ok but I want to be sure.

I would replace it all since you're already in there.

Do you think a stock unit will do?

I don't know why a stock unit wouldn't work. If you have any questions you could call the folks at Brewer Performance. They are very helpful. I bought a clutch assembly from them and had no trouble.

Stock unit works fine until you go to the track with slicks. Hays has a diaphragm pressure plate if you want a softer pedal. Just remember to remove the over center spring on the pedal if you go to one.

Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch

I used the Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch on mine and have been very happy with it.

The weights seem to apply more force as the rpms go up just as advertised.

Almost any of the regular manufacturers will be fine for regular use. Hayes, center force, mcCleod,
