[QUOTE="WutApex, post: 16978321, member: 14853"] Time for a new clutch for a mildly modded, mostly street-driven Cobra. Car does see some road course work (200 tread wear), occasional hole shots, and [I]very[/I] infrequent trips to the dragstrip on street tires (no drag radials). Should be a straightforward (single disc) clutch replacement unless I find out the trans needs addressed ([I]in that case, this thread will evolve into built T45 parts vs TkX/T56 swaps[/I]) Couple questions: 1. Is it worth upgrading to a 26-spline input shaft? -- If so, is it an easy swap out w/o having to get into the trans internals? 2. Looking for a clutch that's not too soft, but nothing that'll be too stiff/chatter during daily driving. -- Waffling on the McLeod Street Pro vs Super Steet Pro...recommendations? I definitely don't want to over-clutch the car -- Any other clutches that fit the bill better than a McLeod? 3. Is there any benefit going with a 11" vs 10.5"?...increased clamping power vs increased rotational mass 4. Any other parts needed while I'm there? -- Clutch -- Flywheel - likely billet or chromoly -- T/O bearing - Timkin, Valeo, or Ford Perf -- Pilot bearing - Timkin, Valeo, or Ford Perf -- Clutch fork - McLeod or Ford Perf -- Trans mount - Stifflers, Energy Susp, or Prothane -- Pivot stud - should I get an adjustable one? -- Flywheel bolt kit - Ford Perf or ARP -- Clutch cable kit w/firewall adj - waiting on MM to re-stock [/QUOTE]
