Thanks man, I didn't know that. Sucks that McCleod doesn't just copy the stock flywheel dimensions though like other manufacturers.No; the McLeod clutch friction disc surfaces do NOT line up with an OEM flywheel's surface...whereas the McLeod flywheel is a PERFECT match to their clutch. If the Surfaces do not mate perfectly, the flywheel will cut a groove into the friction material on the clutch surface and then as the clutch gets hot, the clutch will hang up and fail to release. (Clutch material will swell and lock into the worn groove in the flywheel)
The bottom line is a use a McLeod flywheel with a McLeod clutch if you don't want to think about it - or if using another brand flywheel, make SURE the surfaces mate correctly or you will be tearing the tranny out to replace the clutch again very soon.
You mean the McLeod friction material diameter is smaller than the OEM flywheel or larger?
I am going to double check tonight to see where it lines up, never thought to slap them together and check yet.
