Clutch ?
Well I can hear my throw-out bearing every time I depress pedal and the link adjustment is at the very end of the rod so I'm going to replace the clutch before it fails. Dumb ? but how can I tell whether I have 10.5" or 11" clutch? What are opinions on stock replacement clutch vs. street performance clutch? Have original 350/350 but am considering some light mods (intake; headers). Thanks!

Re: Clutch ? (JMV)
The mid grade Centerforce would be a good idea. I have the dual friction and it handles 700 hp

i agree. the 'mid grade' centerforce will provide more clamping force with less pedal effort than even a stock replacement.as for which size to go with, it's your pick. the disk is the only difference. the pressure plate is the same for either size and bolts up to the flywheel just the same. this is the information i got from the centerforce rep at SEMA last year.

I went with the 11" center force dual friction. Just make sure your get the fork geometry that is outlined on the orange card that comes with it. You need an adj pivot stud or do a bubba mod like me. :)
