    Anyone used a McLeod RST Twin Disc dual clutch set up?

    I was looking at a few clutch set ups for my 4 speed 416 stroker and came across this McLeod unit. There is not much feedback on Summit or other resale sites. Would appreciate any feedback from an actual user. This will be a street driven car and not see any drag strips. Summit hast he...

    Clutch disc preferences for street driven small block 4 speed

    I have read many posts here about clutch choices. Many seem to prefer the center force dual friction for higher power small blocks. My small block 4 speed car will only be street driven with a stroker 416 in the 500-520 HP and torque range. It will be set up to handle reasonably well, have...

    Small Block Bellhousing That Fits 4.8" 4 Speed Bearing Retainer

    10.5" or 10.95" clutch and pressure plate

    I have heard of some people recommending changing the stock 10.5" clutch and pressure plate and installing the larger 10.95" version when it was time to change the clutch. Is there any benefit in doing so and is it a straight bolt in or are mods required? Thanks
