8 spring hub. Diaphragm style pressure plate and 5.0L mounting pattern. For applications up to 650 hp. Requires 157 tooth flywheel. Kit includes pressure plate, disc, throw out bearing and alignment tool, Changing to a diaphragm style pressure plate may require the removal of your clutch pedal return spring located under the dash. RAM clutch sets have a 5 year / 50,000 mile limited warranty (proof of flywheel resurfacing is required).
RAM Powergrip HD performance clutch kits are the top-level single disc clutch kits for street/strip use up to 650 horsepower. Powergrip HD clutch kits use the same high clamp load pressure plate as our other single disc kits, but now the clutch disc has the premium RAM 900 series metallic facing on both sides. This greatly increases the clutch discs ability to handle heat and promotes longer life and performance in cars that see a fair amount of track time or very aggressive use. The same 8 spring clutch hub contains an alternating set of urethane coated springs for increased durability. RAM Powergrip HD performance clutch kits contain the increased clamp load pressure plate, clutch disc, release bearing (where applicable), and alignment tool. Please note that these kits will have a more aggressive and positive feel on takeoff. Some chatter may occur if engaged at a low engine RPM or with shallow rear gearing. If you are trying to address higher power levels and still want a smooth engagement on takeoff, consider one of our RAM street dual disc clutch systems.
Features:
Increased clamp load pressure plate with comfortable pedal effort.
8 spring center hub clutch disc with alternating urethane coated springs.
RAM 900 series metallic friction on both sides of the disc.
Higher heat tolerance for aggressive driving.
Crisp, clean engagement.
For applications UP TO 650 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.
