clutch question
 

my stock clutch dosent hold any more so i got a ACT rated for 223 FT of tourque do i have to machine my fly wheel when i go to put it in? is there any thing else i can do with out sending it to a machine shop

Re: clutch question
 

be cheap and sand it down urself.. although.. it will never come out as if u have it resurfaced... its just good to resurface the flywheel.. because it gives the clutch a new contact patch.. rather than a surface with ridges and some indentastions in it from previous clutch slammage.... up to u.. be prepared if it effects the clutch's life span and or grab...

Re: clutch question
 

so technackly i could get away with it. im not running that much tourque cuz i have a vx trany with long highway gears. any one know how much i can get a fly wheel for or a lightend fly wheel for?

Re: clutch question
 

i wouldnt get a lightened flywheel, i heard they are bad for turbo engines, they dont provied enoung enurshia to go throught the compression stroke.

Re: clutch question
 

yea what he said Enurshia is a bad bitch.......that bitch burned me too, how do you know her?

Re: clutch question
 

that has nothing to do with engine torque, that clutch will work harder with that trans then a lower gear ratio one.

Re: clutch question
 

if you dont resurace it good enough the clutch will wear improperly and will go out a lot sooner then if you got it done. if your trying to go the cheap route i think a brake shop can resurface them and thats inbetween you doing it and a machine shop doing it.

ok thx guys would it be cheaper to buy a new fly wheel or get one machined? im not gona do this 1/2 asked

*waits for JD to intercept this thred*

oh BTW hooked on phonics owns you guys... inertia, technically etc..

Re: clutch question
 

the machine shop where i live charges 50$ to get it resurfaced and it looks real nice when you get it machined. a brake place will charge you probilby half that. and a new flywheel i think cost at least 150$? i got me a used one and resurfaced it lol.
