RideTech 33 Ford

[bret]

Well...the clutch itself had the correct spline for the Rankin NASCAR trans we used [can't remember the exact spline right now] so that was fine. We used the LS flywheel it came with and redrilled the bolt pattern for the Ford crank. This engine is a zero balance unit so that was not a big deal either. The only real trickery was getting a bellhousing/starter/ring gear to work together. The bellhousing that came with my ebay find was for an LS engine so that was a non player. I found a mag bellhousing on ebay but it was for a larger flywheel system that couldn't work with the tiny clutch. So...we used an LS flexplate, redrilled it for the Ford crank [like the flywheel] and sandwiched it between the flywheel and the crank, making all the neccessary spacers/pilot hubs, etc.
Worked perfect!
