    What do you recommend for a clutch/pressure plate set for a '66 300 engine using a '70 350 flywheel? Car has a mild 300 engine used mainly for cruising, but may see a few trips down the 1/4......
    And is this a 10" or 10.5"??? Bolt circle dia is 11.25"....
    Summit lists Ram and Centerforce.....
    Thanks! :TU:

    It's 10.5" I recommend Ram metallic. It looks like Bronze. It's what I've used for years and it shows very little wear, but it is a little grabby.

    Yes, a 10.5 is what you want. I DO NOT recommend Hays. My Hays unit performs well, but long clutch holds in the staging lanes causes massive heat that actually starts to engage it prematurely. My old Borg & Beck didn't do that.

    Nothing but Centerforce for me.I have had nothing but absolute great luck in my 4 speed 350 cars.Even ran a best of 14.56 with one behind my 350 and a M20 Muncie behind it.Put over 80 runs on the last car I had and daily drove it for 2 years too.Never had a problem.
