did you get the 26-spline version or the 10-spline? I got the 26-spline and it had to be custom built my McLeod.
it looks like "64308-00-07" is written on there. is that a steel flywheel?
edit: 63308 is the aluminum flywheel part number and the ending "07" denotes 26 spline. info found on another forum...

Very nice setup, I just put in the CF DF setup. I am still trying to put 500 miles on it. O/T are you coming down to Bradenton in March?
yep
yep
I know we have talked about this before in the forum, but don't remember a resolution. Why did you use steel instead of aluminum?
Hey, I love those wheels. What are they?
SSR GT3's. I almost bought a set myself until the guy on ebay stiffed me and sold them locally one hour before i sent him the money via paypal.
anyway, i went with a steel rather than aluminum flywheel because it's supposed to help get rid of that horrid bog. do a search on modularfords.com... hammer made a post about it.
i got the clutch in today! the pedal is about 50% lighter than stock, actually. but DAMN is it ever ON/OFF!!! i broke the tires loose pulling out of the shop (Lamottas) without even giving it any gas! gonna take some getting used to (no slipping it and all), but this thing GRABS LIKE HELL and just SLINGSHOTS you forward! can't wait to hit the track!

How much $$$ and how long to install???? Did they do the input shaft too???
as far as i know (someone correct me if i'm wrong), it will easily hold 800+ rwhp/tq.
clutch w/ flywheel and TOB was $799 + S&H
input shaft was $240 + S&H
i took it to the shop for install at 9am and picked it up after work at 7pm. they installed the clutch/flywheel/TOB/input shaft/IRS bushings.
How much did they charge you to install??? I live near there and am very pleased that this work can be done there....... Need to count my savings and make sure I can cover all the expenses......... So how much way the install charges????? Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to get this work done!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats on the purchase and install. As for the on/pff, i remember talking to Hammer and he said it slips like a stock clutch under normal conditions but will grab when promoted to racing conditions. Can u make it slip at all in normal conditions?Originally posted by KiLLaBytE

I think that will also have a lot to do with what quadrant is being used? If it is a higher ratio you might to go back to a stock ratio in order to have some slip during normal driving.
about $400 for clutch/flywheel/TOB/input shaft & necessary fluids.
now that i'm getting more acclimated to it, it is slippable, but it's nowhere near as easy as the stock clutch. it likes to spring the pedal back up, so you have to hold it from doing that, and slip it VERY slowly, otherwise it will grab hard and the car will jerk forward.
i am using the UPR firewall adjuster along with the UPR 3-hook quadrant.
