Anyone got these torque specs for the flywheel and pressure plate? i googled and ran a quick search on here. i got the stock flywheel getting turned today while i'm at work so when i get off i can go get the flywheel and install my new Centerforce dual friction clutch and flywheel. Thanks guys!

 

When I did my clutch last year (351w) I just used the standard torque spec "RFT" (Really F*@#ing tight) lol.
I think the real torque spec for the flywheel is right around 50-60 ft. lbs and the pressure plate depends on your clutch size
if i remember correctly 10 inch clutch is 15-20 ft lbs and the 11inch is 20-29 ft lbs or something close to that, I could be wrong though

 

it's an 11" clutch. i shoulda put all that in the original post. LoL.

 

if anyone could confirm i have the same shtuff and would like this to be the last time i have to drop my tranny for a while

 

i found 2 different torque specs on the pressure plate. i found 12-24 ft/lbs on a different website today, but on Friday i searched for a couple hours after this thread and found 20-29 ft/lbs a couple times. i did mine to 29 ft/lbs just for fun. it shouldn't make too much difference between 20-29 ft/lbs just as long as they are all the same torque so that the pressure plate fingers are all at the same distance from the throwout bearing.

Flywheel-- 75-85 ft/lbs
pressure plate-- 12-24 ft/lbs or 20-29 ft/lbs????

 

speaking of specs...anyone know the stock clutch holding power, preferably in torque

 

dont mean to jack the thread but how do you figure out what size the clutch is

 

What engine?

 

its a 300 w/ the mazda tranny

 

O christ. I didnt realize you brought up a dead thread.

To find out clutch size you have to measure it

 

haha thats google for ya.
and yeah thats obvious. i was wondering if there was a way to know without droppin the tranny, and make sure the right size is in it. i dont trust previous owners haha.

 

dead thread.. dont care.. cause this pops up on google. I ordered a 10" clutch, dropped tranny and it was an 11" clutch. For $55 and the ease of the job with my new transmission jack, I'd of bolted a 10" for a few months but it wouldn't bolt up.

Not sure how to find out 10 or 11 without dropping tranny.
