clutch options

cdaleracer669 · 5-10-08, 20:47

what options are out there for aftermarket clutches? something that will hold 300 HP or more, and where is the cheapest place to buy them.

South Bend Clutch - High Performance clutches, Ford Power Stroke & Dodge Ram Truck clutch kits, feramic and ceramic disks, Kevlar pilot bearings, and heavy duty clutches for passenger/racing cars, agricultural and midsize trucks.

Indeed, Keeloh is correct.

Ask for Andy, and mention that you are from mx6.com, you ought to be nicely surprised.

I got an OFE Stage 3, but you probably need something with a bit more beef to it.. for 300 whp,y ou are looking at 350 ft/lbs of torque at least, if not more...

You're not going to make 300hp on an f2t anyways ..... stock Exedy disk is probably fine for "daily driver with some mods".

for the love of God!!!! STAY AWAY FROM THE "GRIPFORCE" clutches on ebay....they wouldn't hold up under the torque most riding mowers put down!!!

Exedy is a good choice for our cars, I went overboard on my car and got a ACT heavy duty clutch for my car that by the way is rated at 300 hp and I believe 315 pound feet of torque. I have a Exedy clutch in my 2000 civic si that works very well.

I am using an Exedy MZK-6806SO (sports organic) its basically the same as the standard clutch except its got 1950lbs of clamp force, as opposed to about 1200lbs on the standard.
All mated to a fidanza flywheel.

Its a good compromise for a daily driver with 200-250hp

There is a guy here in Oz who modifies a B2600 plate to fit so that you can get up 2600lbs clamp....I was going to get that, but couldnt really wait to have it made up...I had to go the off the shelf option....
