New clutch

[ThatOneBigKid]

I have a 2004 SVT and the clutch is starting to slip so I need a new one. This is my daily and its bone stock. Any recommendations? I will be adding bolt ons with cams being the most aggressive addition, keeping it N/A.

Thanks for the input

As long as you're N/A I doubt you'll need anything more than a stock clutch.

CFM has some stuff as does CLUTCHCITYONLINE.

Stock.

get the luk clutch kit. Just put one in, works great.

Can I just go with the Luk kit without the flywheel (around $250) or do I need the new style flywheel(closer to $525 for everything)?

Thanks for the input guys

looks like a lot of fing around for just moving the power band around a little. still when getting the bigger cams(the only one worth the p.i.t.a) your still looking at 12 hundred bucks.

[closetfordfan]

Of which cams do you speak?

Picked up the Luk kit off ebay. 425 shipped to the house Going to install the weekend of the 14th. Any tips or tricks to dropping the tranny?

@ FORDSVTPARTS - Do you have Flywheel bolts in stock for the 6 speed? (not sure if they are different from the 5 speed) I have heard that they should be replaced when the clutch is replaced. Do you recomend this.

$2.75 each and we do stock them, If you don't replace them be sure to use Loc-tite on the old bolts when you install them.

They are unique to the SVT.

Rent an engine hoist to lift the trans in and out, it makes life a hell of a lot easier. You will need to rotate the trans counter clockwise to get it past the subframe (k-member). I also found this thread on focal jet to be helpful.
