Post any info on clutch ideas you know and how you like them. Looking for a clutch for my 94 z28 w/ bolt ons.

 

For a normal street car... I like the Spec 3+ (non-puck version).

I've run a two of them without issue on my S10 and Trans AM. The last one was removed at about 50k miles with plenty of life left (I installed a McLeod Twin because torque).

 

^^^^^^

single disc clutch like the 3+ as it has more aggressive friction material vs stock organic clutch will hold better and take more abuse and be ok for a bolt on car

with that said, and if more power is in the future for your car, the McLeod Twin will handle it and drive like a stock clutch. Not cheap but after several single disc clutches for my car I would have been $ ahead getting the Twin first

 

What about how challenging it is to push the clutch while in traffic?

 

If you mean the McLeod Street Twin, it's not much different on the street or in traffic than the stock clutch... maybe a tiny bit more pressure required. But no grabbing, chatter, etc. Smooth as silk.

Do a 5,000 RPM dump on slicks, and you'll find out why it's such a great clutch.

 

There's really almost no pedal difference between any of them with the hydraulic setup. It's not the old mechanical linkage stuff where you literally have to overpower the springs with sheer leg muscle.

 

the McLeod Twin for LT1 requires a larger MC (included in their kit) that makes pedal effort "slightly" more than stock......and I mean slightly, nothing where it is problematic in stop & go traffic.

 

My kit (late 90's) did not have a larger MC. Had a sleeve for the slave cylinder, and had to shave the pivot ball. The different/adjustable MC came later.

 

yeah Fred the McLeod unit for the "pull" LT1 clutch has evolved over the years. They started to include the Tilton MC which had reported problems of tearing the cup seal inside due to a non chamfered hole inside the bore. They now use the Wilwood "compact" MC and make the adjustable rod and angled adapter so it can be mounted as stock position. It is 13/16" bore MC. Nice unit

I also had to trim the "T" stud of the clutch fork mount as the fork was buzzing the PP when MC was adjusted enough to fully release the clutch. McLeod states some have to and some don't.

For me the McLeod Street Twin is the best clutch I have run.

 

Another vote for the Street Twin. Drives smooth as butter and holds like a mother.
