Whats "Too" Harsh for a KK Clutch?

B2r3y · 02-26-2003, 09:32 AM

I was just wondering what is too harsh for a King Cobra clutch setup. I ask this because i just busted one after only 1100 miles (the center of the clutch disc was busted and turned freely) on a stock 88 5.0 GT. Would double clutching cause this or should i be ok with doing that? What other conditions would cause a busted KK clutch on a stock 5.0? I just bought another one wiht a new flywheel and pilot bearing and i dont want to bust this one?
Thanks again
Bryan

I would say whats ur defintion of double clutching i heard so many diff. versions, If you mean while down shifting you match rev's then no that shouldnt be to much, Ive had my KKclutch on for about 2k now with minor bolt ons and it still grabs like new butt hen again I dont race to much or dog it out.
