And if there is flexing, I would think the issue is somewhere else. Just my .00000000000019 cents. Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C.

There should not be enough force just overcoming plate load to move or flex anything. Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

The runout was with in spec out of the box, no offset dowels required on my install. I have a 10" McLeod soft-lok and the counter-weights have only .100" clearance to the bell. 10.5" or bigger probably won't work. Make sure your clutch will fit it. 8336302-14392882828_7b232edd73_o.jpg (46 downloads) Robert R Mesa, AZ 70 Challenger R/T 440-6 4-Sp Cruiser 67 Barracuda FB 540 4-Sp Strip/Street and Drag Week

Obviously not an issue with you're hydraulic TB. 8336303-14392905169_ffc068d775_o.jpg (52 downloads) Robert R Mesa, AZ 70 Challenger R/T 440-6 4-Sp Cruiser 67 Barracuda FB 540 4-Sp Strip/Street and Drag Week

Thinking about getting a mcleod rxt clutch so it should fit with ease. Think its 9,7". Only downside i see with it is the lower rotating weight and my car is heavy so i believe it needs the weight to get of the line.
