Just sent my money to Brian (owner of Clutch specialties) and he is making me a single disk clutch that will hold roughly 900ft/lbs of torque.
I am trading my buddy the clutch I currently have which is a 240mm flywheel, cintered iron disk and heavy pressure plate for all of his 250mm stuff and 150 bucks.
gonna send in the 88turbo flywheel and pressure plate. have flywheel lightened 4 or 5 lbs. Have this newer 10" pressure plate that Brian has loaded with the 2600 psi diaphram from the one I am sending in, but he is changing the fulcrum point to give it around 3000 psi of clamping force. He is also giving me a high friction coefitient disk (He said the one I currently have from him is a medium coefitient, the six puck cintered iron one.) He said that with the med coef. disk it would be good for roughly 730ft,lbs or so, but with the high coef. disk it will be good for slightly more than 900ft/lbs.
The guy seems very knowledgable about what he is doing. Knows more than me, which I would hope so. Loves to talk though LOL.
I told him that I wanted to double up the diaphram to give it a shit load of clamping force. He said that he COULD do that but, he doesnt recomend that for a few reasons. A. It would put a lot of thrust stress on the crank shaft. B. I would have to push my clutch all the way to the floor just to get it to work. C. It would put lots of strain on my hydraulics in the clutch system.
