I agree re Centerforce. I just today started my 1964 HiPo 289 Fairlane with=
 the Centerforce. It was quite smooth both in first and in reverse.

I like that setup.

Guys;

=20

I have had two Centerforce clutch packs on my non-stock 289 block: one afte=
r I bought it and did a mild workover of the engine, and one much later afte=
r having the totally worn out engine completely rebuilt to a much higher sta=
te of tune.=20

At the time (15 years ago for stage one build it was just the new clutch, a=
 new alloy rad, carb etc). 10 years later the engine was bored and stroked, =
new rotating assembly,pistons,intake manifold, 4 barrel 600cfm carb,roller h=
ydraulic cam, roller tipped rockers, etc etc.

=20

These excellent clutches at the time were sized according to the engine tor=
que. My first Centerforce clutch was good for 300 ft lbs; the second was goo=
d for 400 ft lb. ( my engine was now showing 349ft lbs at the crank.)

Both clutches were easy on the leg - very easy  to shove in the pedal. They=
're smooth on the release, and could take a high rpm drag race start very sm=
oothly. After some 30k miles, still performing as new.

=20

I highly recommend them.
