What clutch to use for a FE and Toploader
I am about to drop my motor and transmission on to the chassis. I would like to know what clutch system should I go with?
I have a 427 FE with a toploader transmission. Motor puts out about 550 hp. |

I ran the McLeod 12" pressure plate and disc setup including the flywheel from David Kee too. So far so good.

I'm having the McLeod 12" p plate and disc installed this week. It will replace an 11.5" unit. Hard to tame 600 plus horse, I need the biggest clutch I can get but DON'T want to go to a "raceing" style clutch. I do drive the street after all.
Duane, anything special about that flywheel? Mine is from a 428 and I plan to have it surfaced and use again. New pilot bushing and throw out bearing while I'm in there. |
I use a Center Force and a hydraulic throwout bearing.

Hey Larry,
I was thinking about a Center Force and called them up. They are recommending a Center Force 2 Part # CFT- 360033 Part# CFT- 281226 I also wanted to go with a Hydralic Throw out Bearing like you mentioned. Any ideas where the best place to get the product. Thanks for the info. |
Priobe, when I get home from work I'll send you the part numbers.
Larry:) |

THANKS AGAIN |
I,ve run the stock replacement Borg-Warner for many years,no failure and lots of power.
