Re: CLUTCH T5

I bought the Valeo King Cobra clutch for mine and it's held up very well.  It fits the 10-1/2" flywheel.

Re: CLUTCH T5

Exedy stage 1 rated for 430 ft/lb torque.
I’m not past that on my stock 5.0L

I purchased clutch kit through American Muscle.
I also replaced the worn clutch arm and pivot stud as well.

I’m not racing, good for a daily driver and spirited driving.
And didn’t deplete the bank account.🤣
I tried to be realistic for what a stock engine combo really needed at this time.

I'm running a stock long finger pressure plate. All stock 67 clutch linkage too in a late model bell.

Re: CLUTCH T5

King Cobra in my '67.  I really like it.  Very smooth, easy to use and a definite engagement point.  For stock or lightly modified that's the way I'd go.
