Ranger,
Will Baty is a member here....you should be able to PM him. You could also call him, he's posted his # at work, on the board before....I'll PM it to you

i'm still running my stock flywheel....when i got the clutch i didn't have money for a flywheel also (college kills my wallet). But if i could do it over again i would have gotten them together. I talked to will before i ordered it though and he said that the stock flywheel should be "neutral balanced" which is the same balance the centerforce clutch has so i didn't get them balanced. However I would advise anyone who is getting a clutch to get them balanced! I didn't have the time or money to do mine. I just needed it back on the road (daily driver). No problems so far! and just FYI the track i was supposed to race at got postponed until Feb. 3rd so i will let ya'll know something then about how it held up!

Just got off the phone with Mr. Strano. He said he should be able to do the 12" DF Clutch for $399+freight.
IF you're interested in also gettin a flywheel, he would like to speak with you first, and his # is 814-848-3450
Hope this helps

Mike,
When I pull up the link, its blank, sorry...
Jim,
Thats the price for the clutch/pp...If you're interested in a flywheel, Sam said he'd like to talk to anyone who may be....As there may be some discrepancies between the larger clutch size and certain aluminum flywheels....
RICEBURNER,
I have to agree ...
Also guys, I apologize for not getting to the track yet....Just really hoping to get a rear-end ordered here soon....
Though, tonight was the first time I've taken it out and played on the street, and I can ASSURE you it grabs!!!! I made 2 roll races with a bolt on 04 Cobra, we split 1-1....clutch was FLAWLESS.

Well, I had said I'd report back after I made it to the track....
I was REAL easy on the shifts, since I haven't got the 9" in the car yet, and I was honestly kinda easy on it outta the hole...I made 4 passes, NO clutch slip, it held up great, and I got a 1.8 short time, slipping the clutch, on stock suspension, stock 10 bolt, an 245/50 16" nittos...
I've also done a lil messing around on the street, and its been flawless...
Just reporting back, as I said I would...

Well, the DF held up to me breaking the T56
Got a best of 12.3 @ 115 outta the car still as yet untuned, stock suspension, stock rear....
9" is now installed, some suspension work is done, the tranny has been built stronger, and its awaiting a tune....And we'll REALLY see what she holds up to

I also finally made it to the track. I dont remember my times but i will find my time slips and let ya'll know. But my centerforce held up great! No complaints whatsoever.....it grabbed hard as hell and never hesitated to go into any gear! I even did a couple launches while riding the clutch just a little to spare my poor 10 bolt and didn't have any complaints at all! I love this clutch! I will be making it to the track again mid june and will report back again!
