Description
Converting your Ford small block to a modern 5 or 6-speed? The Superior 10" Long Pattern clutch assembly delivers the smooth engagement your street car demands while doubling the service life of conventional organic discs. This multi-friction design pairs Kevlar material on the pressure plate side with organic material on the flywheel side -- a combination that provides excellent heat tolerance and durability without the harsh engagement characteristics of full-race clutches.
The engineering starts with a diaphragm pressure plate that delivers consistent clamping force with a progressive pedal feel. The 3-1/8" bolt spacing with 5/16" bolts matches stock 289/302 10" long pattern flywheels, so you can retain your existing flywheel while upgrading the disc and pressure plate. The fully sprung hub with Marcel springs absorbs drivetrain shock and provides precise modulation for stop-and-go traffic and spirited driving alike.
Built specifically for TKO and T56 transmission swaps, the 26-spline 1-1/8" hub matches the input shaft spline count and diameter used on Ford TKO-600 and T56 Magnum transmissions. Whether you're running a cable throwout bearing or upgrading to a hydraulic slave cylinder, this kit works with your release system of choice.
Every Superior clutch disc is hand-built in MDL's Caldwell, Idaho facility. Each assembly is checked and double-checked for accuracy before shipping -- no shortcuts, no compromises. Rated at 250 ft-lb for street and cruising applications, this kit is backed by a 1-year free-from-defect warranty and lifetime technical support. Proudly made in the USA.
