Also do yourself a favor and get an aftermarket quadrant and firewall adjuster

Oem frpp clutch cable..
centerforce df clutch
Quadrant & adjusted
I have alum. Centerforce flywheel.. hasn't warped yet

I have a tko 600 and my clutch feel is like stock. I love it..


Lizzy how long has it been since you changed ur cable? My clutch was always heavy, my tuner told me change cables and it fixed it. Guess the frpp one started fraying from the inside and didn't bust the black cover on it??

The first link is the link to the actual flywheel, the second link is to cliffyk's thread where he reviewed his RAM clutch and the Ralco flywheel.

Good Luck!

I also have that Ralco RZ chromoly flywheel along with an OEM 03 Cobra clutch and super long story short, I have been experiencing bad rattle symptoms when I let the clutch engage from a standstill....I highly doubt it's a faulty flywheel though, i'm guessing it could be the way it as installed. I'm going to save the story.

But I can say this...after giving it plenty of miles to break in, I have tried going WOT on it to feel the difference in the pull and the lighter weight of this flywheel can really be felt. It feels great. I also hardly noticed any problems with rolling off from a standstill with a lightweight clutch that some people with even lighter, aluminum flywheels complain about.
