cheap replacement clutch ?
 
I don`t want to spend too much on a clutch thats only going to be used a couple of months,,,,the one in the car is so bad I can`t move the car now and I`m putting the adapter for the 5.0 trans for the bigger clutch but am not quite ready for that yet any help/suggestions would be appreciated

thanks Brian

I have a few of them laying around. How far are you from my place 36263 is the zip.

just some FYI. Just because you install a 5.0 t-5 does not mean you will install a 5.0 clutch. You will need a different flywheel to do that.

The 2.3 uses a lot smaller flywheel than a 5.0 and I don't know if anybody makes a larger flywheel so that you can use a 10.5" clutch

As of about 2 months ago, SPEC has been making one. It's a neutral-balance 5.0L flywheel with the 2.3 turbo crank pattern. Requires the bellhousing adapter from Stinger Performance. We made that flywheel mostly for them, as they sell the whole package.

:nice:
