Decided to put a new clutch in my car since the Mcleod dual friction is showing MAJOR signs of slipping on the pressure plate side

New combo should have substantial power increase over the old one and need a strong clutch with good street manors

Do they even make one to fit the 26 spline TKO input shaft?

Thanks
Brian

Well it looks like the link to their website is now an adult site so I'll skip on posting the link.

They make clutches for the chevy boys, so I don't see why there would be a problem for your TKO, but I still don't recomend going to their web page if you're looking for clutch info [Big Grin]

I got the link from the mag and got the same adult website. I dont know what that was all about but this is what was given to me a week ago when I asked about a clutch recommendation. Not the company but an online retailer.

why only stage II? You'll leave the line spraying on slicks sometimes right?

but if I understand correctly the stage II is a little more 'liveable' in a daily driver... is that why?

Ask Dan(v6boy), he had a spec stage 3 clutch in his car ask him how he liked it.

Yes that's why, I am still driving the car 500+ miles a week (or at least I will be once I get it back together in 2 weeks [Whoo Whooooo!]

I don't know what your plans are for your flywheel, but Dave at SPEC gave me a 25% discount for buying a clutch and a flywheel; on my Stage 1, that translated to $50 off [patriot] .

BTW, I have nothing but praise for SPEC's quality-fitment and finish are [worship] .

Dave's # is 800-828-4379-helpful guy.

I believe they have units for TKO applications.

My flywheel must stay with the engine, when I got the motor from Keith Craft it was balanced with my motor

Thanks for the info, I'll give him a call
