Re: Spec Throwout Bearing

Re: Spec Throwout Bearing
From a clutch/driveline industry standpoint, I think I would go for the TKO 600. That's a big-seller and there's some huge power #'s out of them. THey can be modified too for almost indestructable power.
As for breaking them or a G-Force: I could install one wrong or leave something loose and a stock 5.0L would kill it in a day. I would replace all components down there to make sure nothing's binding up or worn-out enough to cause play or offset installs.

Re: Spec Throwout Bearing
Yep, the problems with the new TKO's is disturbing. Me and Brian had already discussed that to a point by PM's. It's a hard decision. Well, not really when you don't have the duckies to drop down on one at the moment anyway.

Re: Spec Throwout Bearing
Brad i would replace the trans so you can dyno it. Then the rearend before track use. It will cost you more if something blows apart, dont wait till it breaks. This is from replacing all the bearings and about two hours worth of cleaning all the shavings and pieces of metal out of my rearend.
P.S. Stock tob 39,000 no problem |
