Default Re: New clutch: Judder from hell

When I think V8 clutch, I think of the 9-inch Long type but the flywheel has to have the lip machined down to use it. Some of the new 9-inch pressure plates are crap so a person has to know where to shop or have an old original rebuilt by a good shop like Fort Wayne Clutch.

Torque tube drives can put a lot of pressure on the motor mounts. If they are loose in any way then the engine will move around all over the place when engaging the clutch. Worn float-a-motor sets would likely be more problematic than OEM sets but either one can get loose.
