??? Clutch & P/P ???

Post by kaptnkaos »

Hey guys,

While I've got the engine outta the CS, I wanna replace the clutch & PP.
They tell me that there were 3 or 4 differant ones used in our trucks...
I have a 390 w/a 435... which style P/P would work the best in my application... the lever type or the diaphram type???
I am not even sure what type of P/P is in it now...
I should find that out this evening when I go over to work on the CS...

Thanx again,

Lever is the strongest.

Diaphragm makes for an easier clutch pedal

I would use the diaphram type. I like the feal of them better and they have a more even clamping force.
