Default New Centerforce DYAD Clutch Pics, rated at 1200 ft/lb!

I received my new Centerforce DYAD clutch setup and thought I post some pics for guys who might not be familiar with it. This is going on my 540 BBC with a Tremec TKO-600. Clutch comes complete with flywheel, drive disc, floater plate, floater disc, pressure plate, and all the necessary hardware for install. The clutch comes completely balanced and was rated with a holding capacity over 1200 ft/lbs. I am very impressed with the quality out of the box and install was a piece of cake. As soon as I get it on the road I will update this post with overall driving impressions

That looks serious, I say your better off building stuff for more hp then you'll ever use then replacing it all the time..

Hey Justin

Funny, I was looking at that thing this morning on centerforces website, looks great. Im curious, are you setting it up with a hyd throw out bearing or going mechanical? Do they specify a special bearing for it? any chance you could give us a price range on it?

Very nice looking piece, Im very interested in your review of it, pedal feel, noise from floater disk etc.

Thanks for posting it - Rich

That does look like a sweet set up. The only negative I see is the proprietary flywheel. How heavy is it?
