    New clutch installed and bad wheel hop?

    I’m using the factory big block cast iron bell housing. Shouldn’t that be adequate with an approx 450 horse engine? I’m not actively racing the car. It’s more of a street sometimes strip car.

    New clutch installed and bad wheel hop?

    Yellow rose just an expression. I should rephrase that as dumping the clutch and it grabbing solid and assuming the tires aren’t drag radials but street tires my experience has been tire spin but not damage to drive train at least with a healthy 8 3/4.

    New clutch installed and bad wheel hop?

    So re-adjust the clutch linkage so that the clutch grabs farther down? Is the thinking if there is more travel to engage and release the clutch then it’s easier to let it out without having it grab too harshly? My only concern is that in my previous cars if things were set up correct there...

    New clutch installed and bad wheel hop?

    The clutch grabs about an inch from the top but can be adjusted to engage farther down not an issue. I think the first thing I should do is get the pinion angle correct. I don’t know if it is in between 5-7%. Then yes the front spring eye perch’s as well as the back of the springs are...

    New clutch installed and bad wheel hop?

    Thanks Rmoore I hope the issue is that simple. How do you change/adjust pinion angle and how do I properly measure it?

    New clutch installed and bad wheel hop?

    Well I thought better throttle response less spinning weight. Maybe overkill.

    New clutch installed and bad wheel hop?

    It seems this clutch wheel hop issue has been a problem for a long time and I just though that the dart clutch being trashed was the reason.

    New clutch installed and bad wheel hop?

    Yes the car has the small factory non adjustable pinion snubber on it and there are front clamps on both leaves that I think are factory. My other car my Barracuda has the same engine a 383, same leave springs and the basic factory clutch setup and doesn’t wheel hop at all? Could it all be...

    New clutch installed and bad wheel hop?

    So I brought the dart to a reputable restoration shop near me in CT to have some work done on my 67 Dart. I was trying to do most of not all the work on the car by myself and was learning quite a bit and accomplishing a lot. The problem is that I’m in the process of building a 3 car garage...

    Finding a longer clutch adjustment rod?

    My clutch adjustment rod is now 7 1/2” from eye loop to the end of adjustment rod. I think that is the longest you can buy?

    A833 4 Speed Problems.

    From what I can remember. I’m not positive that I’m 100% accurate is was a long time ago. I think the throw out bearing wasn’t working correctly with the clutch fork to fully engage and disengage. Carl

    Finding a longer clutch adjustment rod?

    I have been thinking about my situation with my pedal not coming all the way back up even though my clutch is relatively new and I’m all the way at the end of my clutch adjustment rod. I’m not sure what clutch is in my car because I didn’t order and install it. Maybe the fix isn’t that I need...

    Finding a longer clutch adjustment rod?

    So I noticed after putting my car back together and installing the modified z bar in my car that I’m all the way out on the clutch adjustment rod in order to get the pedal to come all the way back up to the top. I had to use the modified z bar because I’m running TTI headers in my 67 383 4...

    A855 - 5 Speed

    Wow talk about a person that has no integrity and honor. Based on what you have been through Jamie should be ashamed of himself. It’s people like him that make everyone reluctant to shell out big money for new equipment. So sorry for your troubles and loss matthon. Six grand is a huge chunk...

    Passon Performance 5-speed

    It appears based on the website link you can order a mopar 855 5 speed right now through this website? If that is the case why is there still such a waiting list through Passon Performance?

    What does this clutch switch do?

    Thanks everyone for chiming in. Did this only come on certain year 4 speed pedal setups? Maybe the rebuilt manual pedal assembly I bought was from a later a body like 71 or 72. Would my 67 dart 4 speed originally have this part on it? I'm wondering if my dart never had a provision for this? I...

    Changing the clutch over center spring.

    I've been doing some research on line and can't find the answers I'm looking for. I believe I have a centerforce diaphragm clutch in my BB 4 speed dart and the clutch pedal is still a bear to push and hold down. I'm a pretty healthy strong guy but after driving in stop and go traffic it takes...

    What does this clutch switch do?

    Im in the process of trying to figure out how all the components work on my 4 speed a body pedal assembly. In playing with another rebuilt pedal assembly I bought off this site I broke off the plastic stop tab on the end of this switch. I have enclosed some pics of it. It looks like the...

    Where is the neutral safety switch?

    Thanks 67Dart273 So basically someone removed it. What is on the car now than is an automatic starter relay without the push on tab for the clutch safety switch to hook up to? I guess I could just leave it as is instead of rewiring the connection from the clutch pedal assembly to a new 4...

    Where is the neutral safety switch?

    Here is a question that is perplexing me. I'm wondering if a 1967 4 speed barracuda would of came from the factory with a neutral safety switch? I'm the second owner of my car so I don't know what has been changed. After looking at my starter relay on the fender in the engine bay and tracing...

    Pedal has to go to floor and still get some grinding

    I tell you that I had a problem with my car that was driving me crazy a couple of years ago. One tell tale sign was that I couldn't get the car into reverse without shutting the car off and putting it into reverse than starting up the car again. Assuming that you have enough travel on the...

    Reverse Occasional Grinding Question

    Orangetwist I don't now if this would be helpful but I had some major problems with my 4 speed tranny last year and it was all due to something very simple. I would have to actually shut my car off to get it to go into reverse smoothly or it would grind very bad. The reason being the pilot...
