Sal Gerace Sal which multi clutch are you talking about? The McLoed twin disc is OK on the street I know of a couple of people that are running it with no problems WHEN SET UP RIGHT. If it's a tilton little 7 inch clutch I wouldn't do it. It heats up quick and there is no cool air to keep the temp down. You can go to the Kit car show and buy 2 or 3 of these clutches for 400-500$. They cost a grand, what's that tell you. Match the clutch to your driving and wieght of the car. If you like to race a little go with a 15 lbs flywheel. If parades are the winner stay with the 40 lb. If you want to read a good article of flywheels goto www.musclemustangfastfords.com FEB 03 pg 83 Mass vs. Myth Good article on flywheels and clutches. I think this will answer your own questions. If you can't get it, give me a call after 7:00pm with a fax number and I will send it to you in a couple of days. Rick Lake Nice to see the car in the summer, You going to DVIIII ? My car is not on the street now. Get ready for the snow Later my number is 732-254-3536 ps what works in 1 car doesn't work in your car, Different motors,trans, driving styles, car wieghts etc. Here's my set up, 360 hp 440 tork motor, FI,, 5spd for racing 6spd for the street. 3.31 Jag rear. I had a 40 lb flywheel, went to a Hayes 15or 18 lb flywheel, the car runs faster and rev's quicker. Gold clutch pressure plate without the wieghts on the plate, had problem shifting over 3500 rpm when racing, weights locking up the plate and wouldn't shift, up or down. 3200 lb plate. ran 10 1/4 miles with 5 minute cool down and on last 2 runs clutch started to go away. Very happy with set up. Later Sal
