Uprated Twin Plate Clutch

[Mike Tuckwood]

I mentioned some while back that I was going to be working on an alternative High Torque Clutch for my car.
The currently available options didn't seem to have sufficient Torque handling capacity for the power/Torque I am expecting.

I looked at several options, with Tilton, Ap Racing (who we are official agents for) and a few others.
The final chosen solution comes from a combination of various combined AP Racing products to achieve what we needed.





It will also need a custom flywheel and modified HRB, those are being worked on right now ready to drop in.

Dear Mike,
That looks to be a very usefull bit of kit. Can you post details onto the Noble Wiki when you are done so others can pick it up?
Thanks

Mike,

Nice looking piece. Do you envision that clutch pedal effort will be less or more with the new setup?

I'm expecting it to be marginally lighter than the stock clutch in operation, but a little sharper in take-up/bite.

PCD is different, the twin unit is of a smaller diameter. It needs a custom flywheel and Release Bearing Mike.
