Description
Running a Ford transmission behind a GM engine? This MDL Superior clutch kit solves the cross-platform compatibility challenge. The pressure plate bolts directly to GM 11-inch flywheels using the standard 12-5/8 inch equidistant bolt pattern with 3/8-16 fasteners, while the clutch disk features the Ford 10-spline x 1-1/16 inch hub found on factory Ford manual transmissions including the T5, T-45, TR3650, and OEM T56.
The organic friction material on both sides of the disk provides the ideal balance for street applications -- smooth, progressive engagement without the harsh grab of aggressive compounds. This makes it perfect for daily drivers and weekend cruisers where drivability matters as much as holding power. The sprung hub design absorbs drivetrain shock and reduces gear rattle at idle.
MDL hand-builds every Superior clutch disk in-house, allowing complete control over tolerances and balance. Each disk is double-riveted for durability and inspected before shipping. The diaphragm pressure plate delivers consistent clamping force throughout its service life with lighter pedal effort than Borg & Beck designs. The 350 ft-lbs torque rating handles most street performance applications without issue.
The included custom pilot bushing ensures proper Ford transmission input shaft alignment in the GM crankshaft, eliminating binding and premature wear. Designed for mechanical clutch release systems. Made in the USA and backed by MDL's 1-year defect-free warranty and lifetime technical support.
