im looking for a clutch to handle big power
around 570
car is s road going car don’t want anything snappy like an on/off switch
I’m doing a hydraulic conversion so pedal won’t be bad
any recommendations
cheers

Anyone.

Ok thanks
il give him a try

Helix high clamp from Reyland and the plate that goes with it. You will need hydraulic pedal.

This is the best single plate clutch kit for your Cosworth, we have tried them all and others don't come close. High clamp cover means that you can run upwards of 500hp without problems, we actually have several customers with closer to 600hp with this clutch reliably! The high clamp load (better than AP racing) does mean that the clutch pedal will be heavier to depress but this can be overcome by fitting our superb hydraulic clutch conversion.

• Suitable for power levels up to 600hp

Clutch plate & cover £542*

seen this on Reyland website rates them much better than AP

yup, that’s the one I used.

Great how did you find it Toby on the road.

Absolutely fine. It was heavier to use but the 205 pug bulkhead was a little tricky to get the angle right on the master so it may not have been perfect and the pedal ratio was different but perfectly fine,

Hi Toby
went to buy this clutch today and they advised it wouldn’t be upto the job
my engine will be 500lb/ft torque
a lot advised on a twin plate but personally don’t fancy this

I think twin plate would be best esp from a reliability point of view, and even more so if your gonna give it some stick

Cheers Paul

A lot of tuners say they will be a nightmare on the road
on/off and no give.

I had no slip at 500 ftlb, will have to see when I add more

Possibly... but then nearly 600hp is a shit load of power to put through a single paddle plate clutch that ain’t really designed for that, just my opinion

Cheers Paul

Cheers Paul no I take all opinions on board
just spoken with Mark Shead and he used the Helix
this is what a Reyland are selling Toby and with you saying you had no issues at 500lb/ft

yeah, no,issues

Ok mate Thankyou.

When I phoned reyland to order my hydraulic clutch they told me they have used the single plate helix on their 4x4 3dr which iirc was 600hp

To be honest I think they were covering there arse when they said it was border line
This is what I think I’ll be going for
Alcon have got to get back to me yet but Helix seems a lot more availability than any other
