Best Clutch Kit For YB 350bhp 320ft/lb
I want to avoid a paddle clutch if possible and will be staying cable not going hydraulic.
It's RWD T5 gearbox
What's the best kit for me?
Cheers Billy

I don't like paddles and don't want to shell out for hydraulic conversion at the moment.

I have an AP disc and standard cover at 340bhp (4x4). Even after many 1000 miles and hard launches it is still fine.

Future proof it with a full AP Organic clutch kit, pedal is fine and Sheady advised me good for over 400bhp / commensurate torque.

Would also advise getting it balanced with your flywheel - this chap is very good:

Yep, somewhere around the 360 mark but have been assured it will handle the 400bhp+ figure I'm aiming for.

I was going to say your going for more aren't you as you sold that T34 recently.
Where did you get yours? Shead, woodford or rainbum?
