I believe the Centerforce clutch that is currently being sold to 351C owners

is a 10-1/2" unit originally made for the street version 5.0 Mustang, which

is why it requires a different flywheel (or one that's drilled for the

smaller-than-stock Centerforce pressure plate). Stock 351C was an 11" Long

type pressure plate. Knowing Dave & Linda Adler's 'Whiplash' has a 400+ inch

(slightly) detuned race engine, maybe a smaller clutch than stock, regardless

of it's quality, might not have been a good idea. Other owners take note. J
