Re: [DML] Re: Clutch Disk (performance clutch system)

["Cecil Longwisch" <dmc1982@xxxxxxx>]

I installed the centerforce  racing clutch in my 82 for added performance. It is a direct replacement and is listed on there web site for our cars. It is NOT the standard clutch they offer. I had no issues on installation and it has performed well.
This how they describe it:

CENTERFORCE DUAL FRICTION®

Generates up to a 90% increase in holding capacity over
stock systems. This clutch/disc set is designed for use with
engines producing 'high horsepower and torque' output, and
any radically altered high performance street vehicles. This
system is also ideally suited for use with four wheel drive
vehicles. All Centerforce® clutch systems provide smooth
engagement and light pedal pressure without compromising
high performance.

  FWIW, this is what the Legend clutch looked like.. 
  IIRC, there were photos of it on the screen in Pigeon
  Forge.
