Small Block Clutch replacement recommendation
I have a stock 73 L48 with a wide ratio tranny. I need a clutch kit. Any recommendations on brand??
p.s. I plan on building up this motor to around 425HP.
:cool: :eek:

I am very happy with my Centerforce dual friction.
Easy clutch pedal, positive contact.

Centerforce Dual Friction has been great for me, about 2 years and 2500 miles, but I abuse my '74 everytime I take it out.

I picked up a complete assembly (pressure plate/ disk ) from NAPA for my 70 L46. $125 new in stock. M-20 4 sp. Just a thought..........

Another vote for Centerforce dual friction- I've been very happy w/ the one I put in my other toy, which is also right around 425 HP.
