finally got this 347 in my mustang and notice that when at WOT theres a strong vibration above 4k rpms. I have the stock clutch in the car and it have about 50k miles.

So what is a good clutch to get without having to spent a lot? I have a RAM 910 disk in my Camaro and it has worked great. Anyone have a certain clutch they perfer? I am not looking for a racing clutch just something thats smooth and can hold 300rwhp

Thanks

King cobra cluch is perfect,and it's only 200$$$.Maybe you can find a used one on here for less

does that come with a pressure plate also for $200?

I just looked up some SPEC clutchs and there about $180 stage 1 to $280 for stage 2

I just dont know how those will hold though? I would like to maybe race this car once i a while

I liked my spec 2 when i was running my 347.its held like a champ no matter what i did to it.

I had a centerforce on my 86GT and hated it...I then switched to a King Cobra and loved it...The first clutch I put in my 94GT was a King Cobra, but when that wore out I installed a SPEC stage II...

SPEC II is the best clutch I've ever owned...

i have a king cobra with 1700 miles on it, sell it too you for $50, plenty of life
only getting rid of it because i am switching to a tko, different spline shaft

it was behind a mild 351w, had no problems with slipping running on drag radials

the spec stage 2 would be a great clutch, but mine is only $50

The King Cobra is a great clutch. It will hold 300 RWHP no problem on drag radials or regular street tires.

a stock clutch will hold 300 rwhp on street tires too

the question becomes how long, probably 20k miles easy

your flywheel may not be the right one for the motor.you got the 347 from jeff s right?is it 28 or 50 oz balance?i cant remember what it is.i know it had a auto flywheel on it.someone may have given you the wrong flywheel.

That 347 was balanced to 50oz I believe as it was using a stock harmonic balancer/flexplate.

Hey I got a 95 GT and I also am looking for a new clutch. $50 bucks for your King Cobra Clutch sounds pretty good cause I am a little short on money these days. And I was actually looking into getting one of those. Will it fit a 302?

i also have a used centerforce "stage 2" clutch that has 8k miles on it, it was behind a stock headed fox body on stock type tires, i think the centerforce was actually a decent clutch, but i new abused it so i wouldnt know how it reacts to a lot of power $40
