I used a Centerforce flywheel with the Dual Friction clutch assembly, a Tilton hydraulic release bearing and a Lakewood bellhousing, Dave.

For your information, I have more of a clearance issue with the bellhousing than I do with the headers, and I'm at stock ride height. Be careful with speed bumps.

By the way, I'm thinking of going with a McLeod assembly when I get into my transmission again. Remember though, I damaged the transmission (2nd gear synchro) with my mis-shift, it wasn't Richmond's fault.

hmmm....that i didnt expect...That's an 11' clutch I presume.

Where should I look to make the purchase. What OD ratio did you pic?

I believe it is eleven-inch, Dave.

I used off-the-shelf ratios: 3.28 first, with a 0.62 overdrive, I think it is.
