    Re: Where are yall getting your T5 clutch kits

    For a typical sub 400HP engine I would highly recommend the Ford Racing Cobra or King Cobra clutch kit.  Reasonably priced, easy pedal effort, and plenty of holding power.  I think I got my last one from Summit.

    Re: Where are yall getting your T5 clutch kits

    I purchased mine (hydraulic clutch) as a complete kit w/the T5.  That company went out of business.  I had to replace the hydraulic MC and slave cylinder with one from 'Modern Driveline', and am happy with it.

    65 Fastback, 351W, 5-speed, 4 wheel discs, 9" rear,  R&C Front End.

    Re: Where are yall getting your T5 clutch kits

    Quite possibly.  All OEM clutches are made by third parties from what I've seen.  I would check LMR, American Muscle, etc.  The places that specialize in the Fox era.  Also, with a part number you can try these guys:

    https://parts.autonationfordwhitebearlake.com/

    Should be only 10% over dealer cost, even on Ford Racing parts.  I buy most of the OEM parts I can still get new from them.  Even with shipping they still beat the local dealership by a mile.  At times they literally cut the cost almost in half.

    Tascaparts.com is also an excellent place for O/E Ford parts. Very knowledgeable parts personnel.

    Re: Where are yall getting your T5 clutch kits

    This is what I have:

    https://www.americanmuscle.com/exedy-mach350-clutch-8695.html

    It has been used in the 92 and 3.73 gears as well as after transplant into 65 with 3.25 gears.
    I selected this due to fact that my engine is a stock 5.0L and stock T5.
    It’s torque rating is higher than my engine produces.
