This is the clutch I fitted about two years ago. Car is driven daily and I have at least 100 launches on it at the local drag strip. I only adjusted it once, a few hundred miles after it was fitted. http://www.brewersperformance.com/proddetail.asp?prod=MCP1118

From the first post I assumed it was an 18 spline.

There's a lot of good info posted here. First of all you have a big motor and need all the clutch you can get so use the 10.95" setup that bolts onto your 10.5" flywheel. Dollars to doughnuts that's what you have now. Second if you want to minimize your pedal pressure the diaphragm clutch is the way to go. It'll cut your pedal pressure way down for the same clamping force. Your Centerforce idea was on the money, and you should be able to get a CF pressure plate because it has many applications. Just buy the set in this link which I copied from up the thread: http://www.brewersperformance.com/proddetail.asp?prod=MCDP1018 Be sure to get the throwout bearing to go with it and to pack the TO bearing with grease unless it is "lifetime lubed". Back in the day my brother and I put a 3500# clutch in his 67 GTO and we were so green we put the throwout bearing in dry. The clutch was a bear to disengage, but no worries because in about 300 miles the throwout bearing had worn the clutch fingers about off. So he kept the disk and went with a lighter plate and that time we greased the bearing and it lived. Maybe all throwout bearings are sealed now, but we had to learn the hard way. Good luck and ask questions if you don't know the answer. R.
