My clutch is slipping when I punch the gas in the upper gears (4th or 5th). The rmps shoot up, but the car moves no where. I'm trying to decide between McLeod or Centerforce. I heard a few people had problems with the Centerforce DF. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

I have the Centerforcew DF. Once the cable was adjusted right I had no problem. TOB went quickly when it was misadjusted. Its been a great clutch since.

I did not care for the Spec I.

 

[VCal-Bullitt2567]

What brand TOB did you put in there? I read somewhere to use the Ford TOB.

Depending on yer hp level I would reccomned the Spec 2 plus Hybrid with steel flywheel. I have the above and it has great pedal effort and can handle ober 600 RWTQ.

I got Zoom stage 2. No problems, great clutch. I was initially going centerforce but a mustang around here had his come apart on him so my shop said they never had problems with Zoom so with them I went.

Zoom has been around for a long time, I have been trying to figure out what to get when mine goes. Heard a lot of negative things about SPEC, so I thought Centerforce was the answer when I read a lot of good things. Then, lately, I have been hearing the same negative comments about Centerforce. Not so sure what now....maybe just another Ford.

I have a McLeod dual friction in my 87 and it holds the power nice. I never tryed a centerforce but I here good things about them, the same with spec. I had a king cobra clutch in my 88 it was mostly stock and I thought that clutch was great for a mild setup on the street, I dont know if they make it in 11inch though.

I wouldn't recommend Spec to anyone. I have a Spec Stage 1 with their Spec Billett Steel Flywheel and it chatters like a mofo. It is getting a little better after it's been in the car for the last 4 months, but not great. If you plan on getting a nice clutch for street driving, Spec is NOT the answer.

MRT sells an 11" King Cobra clutch for $199. That's the way I'll go when I need one, but my car is mostly stock. Not sure if it would hold the real high hp very well. If you buy a Ford stock clutch, be sure you don't get a reman. When I was having tranny problems, the dealership replaced my original clutch with a Ford reman clutch. If I had known that, I would have bought something else on my own and had them use it instead. The Ford reman clutch is not very strong. If I get real aggressive with it, it will smell like it's burning up. Only go with new!

 

[VIC-TIM]

thanx for the MRT tip. May be the way I go when it's time.

Anyone have experience with the King Cobra clutch? Sound like a good deal!

 

[twin051302]

What kind of HP are you looking for the clutch to handle?

I'm shooting for the 400hp range, because I plan on supercharging.

I had one in my 88lx and I loved it nice and smooth on the street. I didnt have much done to the car. I dont know the horsepower rating you can call ford racing and ask them they should know. I think they are closed thanksgiving week so call this week.

 

[UDBullitt]

I am about to install a DF centerforce clutch so when I get it in I will let yall know how it works. I have heard good things about centerforce so we will see.
