Default Re: Ryan Weaver's 1969 Olds Cutlass S W31 Club Coupe

Ryan, I can't remember if your car came with a blowproof or stock bellhousing? If it didn't, and you're planning to go racing, get one that is appropriate. A lot of improvement has been made in the clutch area over the years compared to how those cars were raced back then. I had a bad experience with Center Force, but I'm sure others will speak highly of them. Do your homework and research and seek opinions before you pull the trigger on purchase and installation. Also, see what your trans. guy thinks about changing the 1st gear ratio. I think your M20 should have 2.52; if it doesn't, see if your guy can make sure that it does or maybe even something a bit steeper when he does the rebuild. That car is heavy and the lower (higher numerically) gear ratio will help get the mass moving.
