[69 Post Sedan]

Another update on my pressure plate issue.....the McLeod pressure plate they they adjusted for me worked fine for normal driving but when at a dead stop and launching the car, on the street mind you, it slipped.....AGAIN. Apparently the 2800 pound clamping force, that they guaranteed to work, isn’t enough!!! So, I’m getting a refund on the pressure plate as soon as I take it out and send it back to them.

Now, after a lot of research and talking with a new company, Advanced Clutch Technology (ACT), out of Lancaster, CA, has a diaphragm pressure plate and organic disc that has 3900 pounds of clamping force. Stock is about 3000 pounds. I should be getting it later next week because they have to make the disc and it takes 3-4 days to get to Wisconsin from California.

This kit should work........keep your fingers crossed!!!
