Clutch for 4-spd
« on: November 22, 2005 - 07:56:00 PM »
Anyone have any suggestions for a 4-spd manual clutch and pressure plate that has to marry a 440?

I have a centerforce and would recommend it to anyone. The centerforce is really easy to push in and it grabs like none other. However, I dont have many miles on it so I dont know how well they hold up. My dad's car has a hays in it and its pretty nice too....

Not to step on toes Killer But Cforce is basically smoke & mirrors advertising with no porduct behind it , all C Force is is a diaphragm style clutch which is the Worst design to use with a high torque @low RPM engine like the 440 , the better style clutches are the Brog & Beck 3 finger or the B&B Long style  , these use a coil spring for pressure which can be swapped like a valve spring to control pressure better than a stamped steel plate that the diaphragm uses
 I use Mcleod clutches & you can talk to Red on th etech line if you need help with the rigth clutch choice for your/car engine combo

I forgot what clutch/pressure plate brand i bought. I think it started with a 'D' and I know it was made in Korea. It was a diaphragm style clutch for my 360. It worked well, very smooth and easy to engage/disengage clutch.  With Chryco Psycho's comments I may need to replace that for my 408 in the future.
