69 427 Clutch Opinions

[Brad H.]

It's about time to change the clutch on my 69. There are so many on the market these days, I was hoping some of you might have recommendations for it. The car is stock and numbers matching but I'm not worried about the clutch being an OEM unit. Engine is a stock L-36 and I'm more interested in smooth operation than anything else. Thanks for any recommendations you may have!

Any auto parts store should be able to set you up with a LuK OE 11" replacement clutch. They will provide excellent service for normal road use, but may not be the best if you like to side-step the clutch at 5000 revs on a regular basis. Avoid "racing clutches" unless you are really racing.

LUK or Sachs clutches are the closest thing to OEM that you can get other than NOS GM.
