8k clutch upgrade

[ChuenouXiao]

Hey Racers,


I'm planning to buy the 8k clutch for my XB. It's for my OBR 30.5 Pro Stock engine. Does Dave carry them? Which one is best in my case? Again, I'm all about speed and power. My stock one is 6k. Is it a good idea for upgrade? Please let me know

It is a nice upgrade. Makes for much better take off.

Yes DDM has them.

Will this work with my OBR 30.5 pro stock?

Does this look legit?

Yes, that will work.

 

[ChuenouXiao]

Yes, that will work.

DDM is out of stock... I guess I should order from Ebay from the guy?

 

[Deluge1]

Yep. That's a better deal.

 

[ChuenouXiao]

Yep. That's a better deal.

Should be a snap huh? To install? Fits perfectly?

The Zen clutch has 8mm bolt holes, the CY has 9mm bolt holes. So, you'll need the clutch bolts, as well.

Or, you could just swap the clutch spring.

I see so if I replace my stock clutch spring to this one

then It will become a 8k clutch? BTW how do you install the spring too?

Yep. The install is pretty easy. Just take the clutch off, twist the shoes apart, remove the spring, install the new spring and twist the shoes back together.
