McLeod Clutches (Rev-Lok, Kevlar/Organic)
Anyone with a McLeod Rev-Lok II know if the iron disk that comes in the kit is interchangeable with the pressure plate from the McLeod Kevlar/Organic setup? They all pretty much look the same to me...
I'd like to switch to the Rev-Lok II disk, but if I can avoid buying the entire setup again and just switch disks, that would be great...

I believe they all use the same pp. Just swap the disk. Get the flywheel resurfaced and clean up the pp with a sanding block.
Call McCleod to verify...I'd hate to steer you wrong. If your current pp has alot of miles or has been slipped alot you may oughtta get a new pp too.

Thanks for the reply... the pressure plate is pretty new, only a few weeks old. After talking with Jason @ Thunder Racing, he said the latest edition of the Rev-Lok II uses a smaller disk, so I wouldn't be able to use that. However, he said that I could call McLeod up and they would probably be able to sent me the older style disk that would fit the pressure plate I have...
After looking at McLeod's online catalog, it looks like they have a sintered iron disk that is similar to an LS1 sized disk (11", 1-1/8x26 spline), so maybe that would work...

The "OLD" style rev/lok sintered iron disc clutch was revised to the current Rev/Lok II style because McLeod had problems with the "Old Style" rev/loks coming apart. Mine was replaced for free with the new style as were several of my buddies. Two of my personal friends had the old style come apart and destroy their bellhousings. At least they didnt lose their feet!!IMO, I wouldnt use the old style even if they still sell it. My .02
