I run the Centerforce Gold pressure plate #CF280490 and a Centerforce 10"
diaphram clutch #360030 and it works great behind my 331 stroker. I also run a
2.90 first gear in my toploader, so getting off the line is a breeze. Even wth
9" wide 235/45-13 tires I am traction limited.

I have a question about my dad's clutch.  I have to say, it is the firmest
clutch I've ever pressed.  I get used to it after driving for a few days or
weeks.  But, it really is crazy stiff.  So stiff that I can't believe it is
good for the clutch pedal pivot points.  (and just to be clear, I used to
race
bicycles and ride around looking for the steepest hills I could climb, and
still ride.  So my legs are in no way wimpy!)

I have no idea what clutch is in there.  Or what combination of master/slave
there is.  I believe they look like stock hydraulics.

Is this something I should consider/look into?  Any pointers about it?

Thanks,
