How To Install A Clutch | Centerforce 2 Installation For A Carbureted Turbo LS |

Today I will be showing you guys how to go about install a single disk clutch kit. This particular kit was made by the guys over at ‪@CenterforceClutches‬ while I was visiting their HQ in Arizona last month. In this video I will be going over every tip and trick that I know of to install a clutch kit while also making it as clear as possible. There is a lot of information but this is all very important. This centerforce clutch kit will be installed in my 1975 Dodge W100 Power Wagon. This power wagon currently has an upgraded stock style clutch disk but it will all be replaced to make sure it can hold the power of my carbureted LS. The LS is also carbureted turbo with a blow through carburetor custom built by me. This clutch as designed to work with the Toyota R150 that I am currently using so we will see how much more power the little R150 can handle. The stock toyota disk is about 9.25 inches and the upgraded disk is 10 inches wide. Centerforce actually makes an off the shelf 11 inch clutch disk but for this combination they went with a whopping 12 inchs clutch disk, maxing out my flywheel. If this clutch cannot hold the power, I would need to upgrade the clutch further into a twin disk but we will just have to see.

Today I am joined by Trent from Centerforce and we are at the Centerforce headquarters in Arizona. I made the trip from california so that Centerforce could build me a custom version of their Centerforce 2 Clutch Kit. The build consists of taking apart my stock clutch and figuring out what could be saved. Only the flywheel could be reused while the rest could only be used to take measurements for the new clutch. Originally the plan was to take the 10.5 inch clutch disk and install an 11 inch disk which would in itself increase the holding power by a lot. The engineers over at Centerforce found a way to fit a 12 inch clutch disk on the same flywheel which would further increase the holding power of the stage 2 clutch. The clutch was then upgraded again when they replaced the full face organic material and instead installed their segmented dual friction clutch disk. Top that off with their patented center weights and we now have a clutch is capable of supporting nearly 800hp. Whether or not the transmission can hold that power is unlikely but we will sure try to get there. This kit is upgrading my toyota r150 clutch disk and pressure plate that I have been using for the past 2 years. If I was not clear what this clutch is going to be installed in, it will be my carbureted ls which also happens to be a turbo carbureted LS Swap. This is a diy turbo kit so expect some cool videos to come out soon.

Great video, Centerforce makes the best products!

[@NightWrencher]

Absolutely!

[@infamousnova]

Nice upgrade, listen to that monster!

[@NightWrencher]

She sounds better than the last time you saw it 👌

[@dannyreid1845]

Could you should how you set up the slave cylinder allthread rod and the throw out bearing fork to get the right travel to not over or under extended on the pressure plate?

[@dannyreid1845]

I’m buying everything for my 91 Toyota ls swap with the r150 like yours your videos have really helped I’m trying to do mine on a budget and possibly use a stock flywheel from a Silverado. Did you use a pilot bearing bushing sleeve??? There all out of stock

[@NightWrencher]

I got my pilot bearing from advance adapters too. The reason you can't use the silverado one is because the clutch face doesn't extend low enough to catch enough of the toyota disk. The advance adapters flywheel has a full face so the toyota disk and upgraded toyota disk have full engagment.

I have a question I have 5.3 Engine 750 carburetor someone gave me a new AEM genuine 50-1005 380LPH fuel pump Can I run that and what regulator and how is it possible😮

[@NightWrencher]

Yes you can, you will need a bypass style regulator that can bypass enough fuel to drop the pressure down. Call up Aeromotive, they can help you pick the right one.

[@dannyvigo5743]

🇵🇷♥️ thanks man I appreciate it i’m kind of new at this so I need all the help I can get thank you for your time✌️❤️

[@NightWrencher]

No problem 👍

[@jimgordon3206]

Wrong wrong wrong. Put the clutch disc against the flywheel and alignment tool in the back of the crank. The alignment tool will hold the disc in place while you bolt the pressure plate to the flywheel.

[@NightWrencher]

I'm sure you can do that on lighter clutch disks. This disk was too heavy for that. Either that or just get a stronger clutch tool that doesn't flex at the pilot 🤷‍♂️ Thats why I said in the video "this clutch is way heavier than my stock clutch. I'll show you how I did it on the bench."
