Cuda clutch

[newheart46]

  73 Cuda 318, 3 speed. We are changing to an A833 & I want to replace the clutch. Anyone what size that I need to order before I take it apart? Not sure what is in there from the factory. Trying to all my parts in place before I start the swap, hopefully I will all that I need & won't be stuck waiting for parts, lol. many thanks, Mark

All small blocks got the 10.5".

But with a 130 tooth / 10.5" flywheel a 10.95 is a bolt in why not have the extra surface area / grip / life 
 I am also not a fan of Diaphragm style clutches or Centerforce as a brand either . I prefer the Mcleod B&B/Long style

I was about to make a post on exacty this topic.
I have a 340 with the A-230 3spd manual. Linking the two is a 130th flywheel that takes a 6 bolt pressure plate and a 10 1/2" clutch. Would one of the Mcleod 10.95" clutches with a Borg and Beck pressure plate fit my application? More specifically this kit, http://www.mcleodracing.com/products/Street+Pro.mcl?rsku=17756 for the dodge application

The reason I ask is it doesn't look like there is much spare space around the bolt hole of my 10 1/2" pressure plate and I'm not sure how a 10.95" pressure plate would bolt into the same holes on the flywheel.
Thanks

Those scalloped pressure plates use reduced head bolts, some kits come with them.

And yes, it would work for your application.

That's good news! I'll add it to my clutch/transmission repair shopping list

The clutch should come with new bolts , they are like header bolts with the smaller head
