Thread: Which clutch do I need? Chevy engine, Ford Trans

Tweet

Matt, you might check the pressure plate offerings. Seems to me that the one I got for the 302 was dual mounts on the tabs - mounting tabs were wide, and there were two different mounting bolt patterns drilled. Not sure any are combo Chevy/Ford, but if I were making clutches I'd sure look at that option to reduce my inventory.

Good idea. I know some Hayes flywheels are drilled for Ford 3 finger clutches, so it might just work the other way.. I actually had thought about getting a Chevy clutch that would match the trans, but the trans comes up as having a 10 spline 1 1/16" input shaft, and the only GM part that matches that is one that goes to a 3.9L Diesel in the P-30 chassis which is the 4BT Cummins, so it won't work..

I'm really going to need a spread sheet to keep track of what parts I used so when I break it, I will know what to buy.
