OEM Clutch (Ford or Luk)

[WhiteSnake74]

What is the difference between a Ford and a Luk or Look Clutch? Dealer told me it's exactly the same, but the price difference is big. Luk costs half of what the Ford costs.

What is a good OEM replacement clutch for a 04 Cobra? No permormance clutch! Can't stand the damn chatter!!!

How much power does the OEM clutch holds? My car has 450RWHP and the stock clutch seemed to hold fine.

Thanks!

Look at the top right they have a stock one listed for 289.00 http://www.promotionpowertrain.com/NEW_FORD_CLUTCH_PAGE.html

Most oem ones can hold 600, its kinda up to how hard you drive it, mine went out at 28k miles 460 hp with alot of track time behind it,

 

[WhiteSnake74]

Have you heard about Luk or Look oem replacement clutches?

 

[KINGCOBRA86]

No sir I have not.

I've heard of em, Crap Ebay stuff, just get an oem 03/04 Cobra Valeo

 

[WhiteSnake74]

Really? The Ford dealer told me they are the same as oem. And they sell them!

valeo makes the OEM clutch. It is IMO, the best clutch for the money on these cars with a 10 spline input shaft.

OEM is Valeo, which is also: M-7560-D46.

Look at the top right they have a stock one listed for 289.00 ProMotion Powertrain FORD/GM Performance Manual Drivetrain Specialist FL

+1 on ProMotion!

i have been running this clutch on my daily driver for well over a year and 20k+ miles, and absolutely LOVE the clutch!! have had ZERO issues with it, not even a single chirp from the Thow-out bearing yet!! the clutch is sooooo much lighter than the stocker as well. it actually feels like a normal clutch/car now. much much better! and for the price...you cant beat it!

edit: also wanted to add - if i ever have to replace the clutch again, i will be going back to ProMotion, for the same clutch.

Agreed. I just got one brand new for $289 shipped. It goes in next week. Can't wait to shut this throw out bearing up!

 

[WhiteSnake74]

Thanks a lot!

ProMotion sounds like a deal. Is that a Valeo OEM for $289??

 

[WhiteSnake74]

Is the ProMotion clutch a Valeo?

 

[MoKo_03SVT]

no...ProMotion clutch is ProMotion. they make their own clutches. check out there website thoroughly!

i also wanted to add that their clutch has ZERO clutch chatter as well. thats one thing i hated about the stock clutch...mine chattered bad! not this clutch though. ZERO complaints. and i did not upgrade from 10 spline either...which of course they recommended me to do (more $ for them), however i respectfully declined.

edit: i DID however order the forged TOB sleeve from lethal to go along with everything

 

[WhiteSnake74]

Thanks a lot guys.

I've been looking through the forum about promotion, and all I've seen are positive comments.

have you noticed it?

 

[MoKo_03SVT]
