6 spring hub. Kit includes pressure plate, disc, throw out bearing and alignment tool. Ram Powergrip clutches are a heavy duty upgrade for street use. These sets feature composite organic, metallic and Kevlar friction materials matched for the specific application to allow retention of OEM pressure plates where necessary and compatibility with OEM release systems. Each set includes OEM or better pressure plate, Powergrip disc, release bearing and alignment tool. Because the Powergrip disc provides increased holding power by using a higher coefficient of friction material, some chatter may occur under light loads. 2 year/24,000 mile warranty (proof of flywheel resurfacing required).
As horsepower levels increase along with more aggressive use of your vehicle, RAM Powergrip performance clutch kits are a great option for applications up to 550 horsepower. Powergrip clutch kits utilize the same increased clamp load pressure plates as our other performance level kits. These kits also include an 8 spring center hub clutch disc with alternating urethane coated springs that increase the rigidity and durability of the disc. The Powergrip facings are a combination of steel backed organic facing on the flywheel side and RAM 900 series metallic friction on the pressure plate side. This combination provides an excellent blend of street driveability and increased holding capacity for vehicles that see more aggressive use on the street along with an occasional trip to the racetrack. Some chatter may occur if the clutch is engaged at lower engine RPM or in vehicles with shallow rear gearing. Powergrip performance clutch kits include the increased clamp load pressure plate, clutch disc, release bearing (where applicable), and alignment tool. For vehicles that see more track time than street, consider a RAM Powergrip HD clutch kit, or one of the many RAM street dual disc clutch models.

Steel backed organic friction material on the flywheel side.
RAM 900 series metallic friction material on the pressure plate side.
Crisp, clean engagement with a balance of driveability and holding power.
For applications UP TO 550 horsepower.
You must resurface your flywheel prior to the installation of any clutch and replace your pilot bearing (7600). Check flywheel for signs of heat spots, warping or cracks and replace any questionable ones. new flywheels, including SFI certified flywheels can be found in the engine section or by searching for flywheel. It is possible to install a 10.5 inch clutch in place of any 10 inch clutch as the Long style pressure plate mounting bolt pattern is the same. It is advisable to us thread locker on the pressure plate mounting bolts and torque to spec in the proper sequence.
See 7563-1AK, 7563-1BK for mounting hardware options.
