I received my new Centerforce DYAD clutch setup and thought I post some pics for guys who might not be familiar with it. This is going on my 540 BBC with a Tremec TKO-600. Clutch comes complete with flywheel, drive disc, floater plate, floater disc, pressure plate, and all the necessary hardware for install. The clutch comes completely balanced and was rated with a holding capacity over 1200 ft/lbs. I am very impressed with the quality out of the box and install was a piece of cake. As soon as I get it on the road I will update this post with overall driving impressions

Is the clutch a prototype?
The only application I see on their website for a Chevy engine is an LS.

Shane, send Will (two posts up) and message and will will get you the info you need. Its a new part and it might not have made it up their website yet.

Hi Justin. Was just wondering if you had the opportunity yet to test out this new clutch and if you had any feedback? I have a big block '69 also and was thinking of using this clutch. I believe we met and had a nice chat at the Del Mar Goodguys last year. -Chris

Hey Chris! I've been running this clutch in my car for the last 9 months or so, and it has been working great. It hasn't slipped or smelled under abuse like my old one did. Yes, it is probably overkill, but I'm happy with it.

Perfect, thanks for that feedback Matt. Exactly what I'm looking for. I'm trying to decide between this Centerforce DYAD and the McCleod RXT twin with an aluminum flywheel. Seems like the DYAD might be slightly more street-friendly, but it's pricey so I'm haven't made up my mind yet. I have a number of months to continue my research before making a decision, so I'll keep asking around. See you at RTTC? If yes, maybe I can get a demo of the clutch in person? :)
