Default which clutch disc

Hi, putting a 6.0 LQ9 in a 66 mustang,quicktime bellhousing will let me use T5 mustang transmission to the ls block, ls flywheel, ls pressure plate, but which clutch disc ? P.S. it is a beefed up t5 to handle torque. Is it as simple as using a 11'' ford clutch disc ?
thanks

Measure the surface of the flywheel, where the disc has been riding, to see what size you need. This is assuming it's a used flywheel.

I guess what I was asking is,since the spline on the T5 is different then a chevy spline, will a ford clutch disc work with the chevy flywheel and pressure plate ? 11'' clutch & PP, or does it have to be special made ?

thanks again

I think it will work just fine, but don't quote me on that. I don't really see any reason for it not to work if the diameter is correct.
