Hey Guys

Doing a 4-speed conversion on my 68 Barracuda street car and wondering what you recommend for good clutch disc/pressure plate and shifter combo I plan on running it with a pistal grip as well

If it's just a street machine with occasional strip action a basic clutch kit from any auto parts store will hold up for years. Hurst shifter is probably the best choice for the pistol grip shifter, all the competition plus body's are the same , just a different mounting plate to the transmission.



it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

What engine,trans,bell,flywheel size? If you have a 143 tooth bell/wheel combo then I suggest the 12"Mcleod B&B plate and rag disc from Passon Performance.If you only have a 130 tooth bell/wheel then you are more limited in your choices.I like the Hurst Super Shifter III for a street/strip unit,I have run over 40 passes without missing a gear with that shifter.
