Hi there, im in the process of installing a T56 in a third gen and i bought it with a Mcleod Twin Disk clutch with adjustable master cylinder. Now my motor is pretty much a stock 350 so this clutch setup is kind of overkill. Im wondering if i can ditch the Twin Disk setup and use as a Single Disk? Id just not install one of the clutches and the center pressure plate whatever its called right? Will this all work and help the driveability?

Thanks!

 

anyone know? Id like to get the clutch assembly installed today...

I dont see why not? Mcleods pressure plate only has 1 part # and same with the clutch. I could just not use 1 clutch and the floater id think. I just wanted to run this by someone else to see what they think...thanks.

 

I don't think that would work. But I have a Street Twin, and believe me - it's perfectly daily drivable. I don't see why anyone would run it with just one disc even if you could.

Overkill is good!

 

I have just heard stories of people putting stage 4 clutches and stuff on stock motors and its too hard to park or drive in traffic. I mean i want a little bit of slipping...and from the sounds its either grab or no grab. I dont know, but also what torque specifications do i need to go by i dont have a manual or anything because i bought it used.

Thanks Dave

 

Unfortunately I can't find the instructions that came with my Street Twin, or I'd scan them and e-mail them to you.

The Street Twin, despite being able to handle an enormous amount of power, is very easy to drive on the street. I find my ST to be quiet, smooth, and easy to control. Pedal effort is a bit higher than stock, but not unbearable.
