...question on (factory original) flywheel, clutch and pressure plate for a '68 (Camaro) 396 w/Muncie trans.
Am I correct?, ...for the Big Block application, this would be the 14" flywheel (168 teeth) and an 11" clutch/press. plate? (...and I do have the '621' bellhousing...) Also, ...does anyone have any recommendations for for a clutch kit? (ie. brand, source, etc.) This is going in a show car that will be casually driven not raced... Thanks, Kevin |

You are correct on the parts. Also, you'll need the correct starter and flywheel cover for the 621 bellhousing.
If the car isn't a daily driver, use the Centerforce Dual Friction set up. If you drive her a lot, you might go with the Centerforce II. It's said the DF is a bit harder on flywheels but has 90% more holding power than stock. The II has 60% more holding power than stock. But either has a light clutch pedal which is easy on clutch linkage and your lower body. I use CF in four of my cars,..highly recommend it. |

Centerforce is a real good clutch but a bit pricey,and you probably dont need the performance it will offer, i've been using a street clutch by ZOOM . SUMMIT and JEGS sells them for a little over $100 for everything. used 3 of them so far with no problems,real smooth and they grip great. I put one in my 81 Z/28 with a nice little 350 and tremec 5 speed and beat it to death.....no problems. ZOOM offers 3 varietys. Stick with the street clutch,you'll love it.
