Description
When you need more holding power than stock but refuse to give up street manners, the Superior Kevlar/Organic clutch set delivers. This dual-material design pairs Kevlar on the pressure plate side with steel-backed organic facing on the flywheel side--a deliberate engineering choice that exploits the strengths of both materials. Kevlar's coefficient of friction actually increases with temperature, meaning the harder you drive it, the better it grips. The organic side provides the smooth, progressive engagement that keeps this clutch civilized in traffic.
Rated at 450 ft-lbs for Performance Street Plus applications, this clutch handles the demands of modified 5.0L engines, bolt-on power adders, and weekend track days without the harsh pedal feel or chatter of full-race setups. The sprung hub dampens engagement shock that would otherwise stress your transmission and driveshaft, while the diaphragm-style pressure plate delivers consistent clamping force through the full range of pedal travel.
The 10.4" metric pattern uses 8mm pressure plate bolts--a critical distinction from the SAE-thread 10.5" pattern found on GM and some Ford applications. This kit is purpose-built for Ford applications requiring a 1-1/16" x 10-spline input shaft and cable clutch actuation. Every Superior clutch is hand-assembled at MDL's Caldwell, Idaho facility and double-checked for accuracy before it leaves the shop.
