Clutch Recommendations??
I just purchased an 85GSL that is in need of a clutch replacement. My plan is to drive it this summer and this winter transfer everything from my old 83 (Weber side draft 45DCOE that has been choked down to a 40 by Skip Gorman and using one of his lake cities rotary manifold and a racing beat street port exhaust). I will have the engine street ported at this time but this is pretty much all I plan on doing to it. Since I am not going for a high horsepower build would the Exedy stock clutch work or would it be best to just get the Exedy stage 1 clutch?

No experience with exedy, however I know the center force worked well for me under all kinds of abuse with an OER 47 mm 2 barrel side draft on a street port 12a with header and full 2.5 exhaust.... Multiple multiple 5-7k drops and never had an issue till I turboed it.... Then it slipped like crazy but I expected that..

"Exedy stock clutch" should be the right choice for you. How much torque will you be making anyway? Less than 200ftlbs? NA? Yeah, "Exedy stock clutch".

I liked the centerforce dual friction I had on my ITA car. Check ebay, there is one on there that is new but has been on a shelf for years.

I know it is going to be overkill for what I am going to do but you cannot beat that price. I just hope it is in the condition it is reported to be in, but I paid through paypal so I should be safe. How is the pedel feel? Is it much stiffer than stock? |
