How about a Hayes, Zoom etc.? I always ran the stock chevy pressure plate with the L88 disc about 50 years ago. Does those set-ups still work? I like a soft pedal.

Yes, I use the Hays street/strip set up. Clutch pedal is like stock, holds ZL-1 with M/T ET Streets.

I priced this setup on Summit and it came out to $300. Seems a little up there in price. I guess you get what you pay for.

Centerforce II was $185 and the Dual Friction is $270.

another vote for hays. I have a 510 hp / 500 ft lb 406 in my 67 and the hays holds up to it just fine. the pedal isn't hard to push either, so no sore left leg. don't forget to have it balanced with the flywheel before you put it in there.

Thanks for all the information. I am leaning towards Hays but also getting more information on McLeod.

I ordered my clutch and pressure plate and throwout bearing today. I went with a Hays.

Thanks to all that replied.

I took the car out for the first time and drove it around town. The Hays Street/Strip clutch setup I bought works great. Pedal pressure is decent and it seems to grab well.

Thanks for the recommendations.
