yeah the interceptor is a v8 that still does not tell us if they clutch will fit or not...... v8 has little to do with the clutch.

i believe our clutch is over 10" in diameter, while the gt is 8.44 (8.5). Correct me if im wrong though. (yes A v8 has little to do, but OUR v8's have different clutches, that was my point). smaller the clutch, the less acceleration lost due to inertia, hence the gt having a smaller one.
