10" clutch???
OK, stupid question here... have a centerforce billet fw, I thought it was for a t5 but it is not, it's the correct tooth, 1pc main, ext balanced rear...all checks out...but the bolt pattern. The bolt circle for the PP is at about 10.5 so no way a 10.4 clutch and pp are gonna fit without redrilling

Anyone know what kind of pp and disc this was intended for?

here next to oem fw that idiot coater powdercoated (he was told to just blast it... now it makes for wall art)

Looks like ford uses 10" clutches so possibly it was for a conversion using a ford transmission behind an SBC. I have 2 options, redrill the flywheel or run a 10 inch ford clutch with 26 splines (they are available)... ugh.

Re: 10" clutch???
Lots of guys worry about not being able to run an 11" clutch when only a10.5" will fit. You'll be fine.

On the bright side, it's available in 26 spline, not just 10!

Only a 10" clutch will fit but I have a brand new centerforce clutch and pressure plate. I think drilling 6 holes is the cheapest and best route
