What is the break-in procedure for the Clutch Masters FX400 clutch kit?

Clutch Masters typically recommends a break-in period for their performance clutch kits. This usually involves driving gently for a set number of miles, avoiding hard acceleration or slipping the clutch. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for the specific break-in procedure for this FX400 kit.

Does this clutch kit include a pilot bearing and release bearing?

This Clutch Masters FX400 kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and aluminum flywheel. It is recommended to replace the pilot bearing and release bearing when installing a new clutch, as these are often sold separately. Please check the product details or contact us to confirm if these are included or available.

How does the 8-puck design differ from a standard clutch disc?

An 8-puck friction disc has more segmented surfaces compared to a traditional organic disc. This design allows for a more abrupt and firmer engagement when the clutch pedal is released, which is beneficial for managing higher engine torque and for quicker gear changes in performance driving scenarios.

If you're looking to get more out of your BMW's drivetrain, the Clutch Masters FX400 8-Puck Clutch Kit with an aluminum flywheel is a solid option.

It fits a range of BMW models, including the E36 M3, 325i, and 530i, offering a significant upgrade for performance-oriented vehicles.

The FX400 kit features an 8-puck friction disc, which provides a more aggressive engagement compared to a traditional organic disc. This means you'll feel the clutch grab more firmly when you release the pedal, which is beneficial for quick shifts and managing increased power.

Clutch Masters is known for well-built clutch components, and this kit is no exception, aiming to provide reliable performance for demanding use.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, especially regarding the break-in procedure for the new clutch disc. This typically involves a period of gentle driving to allow the surfaces to mate properly, ensuring longevity and optimal performance. This kit includes the clutch disc, pressure plate, and the aluminum flywheel, giving you the core components needed for a clutch upgrade.
