Hi guys i fitted a new valeo clutch when we built my zvh, had the car on the rollers at the weekend and it made 186bhp and 200lbft of torque before the standard valve springs started not liking the boost and making it tail off at the top end, so have sorted some new uprated ones as ian at PE told me they should of been fitted with the cam (which i got 2nd hand)
Since i have started driving it hard it seems like its trying to slip on hard boost, like the pressure plate isnt upto the job?....
Is there any decent clutches out there that dont cost the world to buy, as i swore i was going to just enjoy it now its working and not spend as much.....that lasted 5 minutes

Cheers lads Adam.

 

ap clutch 4 paddle

 

As stated Ap 4 paddle. Use the AP3560-2 cover as well.

Also as you are using a zetec bottom end with cvh head, you must change to a solid lifter cam setup. You cannot successfully run hydraulics with the zetec bottom end. It won't be your springs at fault. Use Newman cams for a suitable camshaft.

 

Ah i didnt know this
