May Have Found The Answer for Some
Was talking to Gordon Levy today about Mustang suspensions (someplace to put my motor before a Cobra is available) and I asked if he knew about a clutch I could use.
Well, apparently he had worked out a setup with Quartermaster. In is not listed clearly in the Quartermaster catalog; and not at all on their web site. It is 18# and with lower inertia because of the smaller diameter. Not as low as a 7.25" or 5.5", but much less than an 11". Cost is managable, under $1000 with aluminum flywheel. The disc is sprung, which makes engagements easier. Torque is either 500# with an organic lining, 600lbf-ft with a metallic. Unfortunately, that is two small for a strong 392, 410, 427, or 434. But should be great for a 289, 302, 331, 347, 351, and less than extreme 392 or 410.
Anyway, I very happy because I found my clutch!!!
