It is about that time to replace my clutch. I was looking at the dual frition ones from summit racing the only difference is 10.4 and 11in diameter disc. How do i know which one i need.

you call the service guy on their service number. the difference is if you have stock or aftermarket tranny. you need the 10.4 10 spline clutch if your all stock in the tranny area. call them if you wanna double check

centerforce dual-friction are very strong clutches for the money. I would recommend nothing else as an upgrade. Yeah, if you have a stock T5, make sure you get the clutch for a 10 spline. If you have a TKO, get the clutch for the 26 spline shaft.

Yeah, I've used them on three transmissions, and know of 3 or 4 other people that have used them, and all lasted to enormous amounts of abuse and never broke.. I only know one guy that replaced his centerforce, and he replaced it with another one. His lasted two years, and that was with a 347 stroker/nitrous combo that made tons of torque, and he drove the **** out of that car. It didn't even need to be replaced when he did it, he was just thinking ahead I guess you could say.
