Terminology review:
A "rag" clutch. Basic and typical clutch composition on both sides covering the entire surface of the disc. Typical of a clutch you might buy from NAPA or where ever.
A "puck" style clutch. Little "pucks", spaced apart, not fully covering the entire surface of the disc. Composition varies, size varies. Typically obtained from a more serious "race type" outlet.
Or a combination, rag on one side, puck on the other.

I would still call Doug to discuss. Often the engine supplier will supply the disc/clutch setup. That doesn't mean you have to take his advice, but he has always been on the right track with his advice to me.

Jim - good advice.
Doug said it was certainly a Center Force clutch. He said to simply call Summit and order a clutch disc that is 11", 1 1/8"-26 and it would fit. He also gave me some other tips on doing the trans swap. Super nice guy, just like the rest of the gang in CT.
I ordered a new Center Force clutch disc today.

Did your pressure plate have the counterweights on it? |

I did not ask about throw out bearings. My car only has 800 miles on it and I see no need in replacing it.
I can't tell if my pressure plate had the weights or not. ERA does suggest removing them, so they would have been removed before install.

John, the reason I asked is that some of the Toploader TOBs will not work with the TKO. Here's where Lykins comes in handy. I believe only the small input TL's TOB is compatible with the TKO. Is that correct, Brent? And what's the deal with the zerk fitting on the McLeod TOB? |
