i have the McLead clutch with diaphragm pressure plate in my 68 dart right now. I didn't think it would last, I believe it's the first level clutch they sell. Anyhow I think it's time for a new one. I took it out for a drive an at a stop light I heard, what sounded like a loose piece of metal like something was loose or rattling when I had the clutch in. It would grind when I tried to put it in gear. I managed to get it home an look at it. I jacked the car up an had my wife push the clutch in while it was up on stands blocked an sure as **** it was coming from the clutch. After that it wouldn't go into gear at all without grinding, so my question is what's a better clutch for my combo? I've had that clutch in the car for a couple of summers. I only drive the car on the weekends an not very far, an as far as spirited driving I smoke the tires every now and again.
The car is a 68 dart with a Dana 60 4:10 gears, small block 318 bored 40 over with a 4 inch scat rotating assembly, rhs heads 2.02 in valve, xe284 hyd cam, Hughes r rockers, small supercharger, 750 dp, water methinjection, 4speed A833. Should I just go with the next
Level up in clutch? For what it's worth this clutch didn't last long for as little as I drove it.
