McLeod RST Ford 1-3/8 X 10 Spline MuStreet Be Used W/1305 Bolt-On Hydralic T.O.

If you're looking to upgrade the clutch in your classic Ford or Mercury, the McLeod RST Twin Disc Clutch Kit is a solid option for high-horsepower street applications. This kit is designed to handle up to 800 horsepower while still offering a streetable feel, making it suitable for a wide range of vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Torino, and Mercury Cougar from the late 60s and early 70s. It uses organic friction discs, which are known for providing smooth engagement and a comfortable pedal effort, a notable difference from more aggressive clutch setups.

What sets this McLeod RST kit apart is its integrated design. Instead of requiring you to source a separate flywheel, this kit comes complete with a dedicated flywheel, simplifying installation. You have the choice between a billet steel flywheel, recommended for street use, or a billet aluminum flywheel for track-focused builds. The kit includes the pressure plate, two organic friction discs, a floater plate, and an adapter ring, along with a pilot tool to help ensure proper alignment during installation. This setup is specifically designed to work with an internal hydraulic bearing, which is a common upgrade for many of these classic applications.

This twin disc clutch is engineered for street performance and is not intended for competition use; for those scenarios, McLeod offers their RXT and RXT 1200 series. The 9.687-inch diameter discs feature a 1-3/8 inch by 10 spline count, designed to bolt to most existing large-diameter flywheels, though it's important to confirm compatibility with your specific setup. This kit represents a significant upgrade for enthusiasts looking for robust clutch performance without sacrificing daily drivability.
