I'm ready to upgrade the clutch in my Hemi Coronet. Brand or product advice? Don't have it apart yet. It has been a few years. Flywheel has 130 teeth. I'm thinking 10.5. I know it is not 11". Looking for recommendations.

What year? Stock HP or not?

An original Hemi with a 130 tooth flywheel would have had the 10.95" clutch. I had a 10.95" Centerforce Dual-Friction behind my stock Hemi and loved it.

The car is a 67 j code RT. These parts were hard to come by in the 70's. I bought the flywheel from a drag racer. It's a bit odd, even though, it's a 130 teeth it is less than 10.95. It's closer to 10.5. It's a bit of a freak unless race hemis 64 and 65 ran this size. Are you aware of any sizes other than the 10.95? Also the motor is not stock. Barnett Automotive in Georgia did it back in the 80's. There are only a few thousand miles on it. 11.5 to 1. 557 cam. VANKE intake modification. Also running a Ansen bellhousing and saver plate. No inspection cover so can't measure. May have to wait on the purchase until I take it apart.

The 130 tooth flyweel will accomodate a 10.5 or a 10.95 pressure plate. They have the same bolt pattern.


In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

McLeod makes some good clutches in the 10.95" for 130T wheel. I assume you have 18 spline? This clutch is also available for the 23.
