FAQ
How much power will this clutch hold?It’s commonly rated around 650 HP and about 1,300 ft-lbs in street/tow service when the rest of the drivetrain is healthy.
Is pedal effort manageable for daily driving?
Yes. The diaphragm-style 3250 pressure plate delivers a lighter pedal than many performance clutches while maintaining strong clamping force.
Does it include a flywheel?
Yes, this kit includes a matched flywheel along with bearings, alignment tool, and hardware.
Can I use this for sled pulling or drag racing?
No. This is a street/tow system and is not SFI-certified. For competition, choose an appropriate SFI-rated package.
Do I need to upgrade hydraulics?
Not strictly required, but aging factory hydraulics can cause release issues. Many owners pair this clutch with fresh or heavy-duty hydraulics.
