  Billet Drag Racing Clutches

 

RAM Professional billet clutches are engineered to provide the ultimate in clutch control. RAM billet clutches feature a unique lever design that allows for complete control of the centrifugal loading of the clutch.  Units are available in single, double, and triple disc versions utilizing either 5135 or 5191 compound iron discs. Ten inch units are used in Pro Modified, IHRA Pro Stock, Pro Street, and blown alcohol applications with engines over 1000 horsepower. Eight inch units can be used for NHRA, Competition, and class racing. Seven inch clutches are popular for smaller motor applications including Pro Import.   Every RAM Professional billet clutch is custom assembled for your application based on the specifications of your car. Please allow 2 weeks for standard ring gear configurations, 4 weeks for custom flywheels. Requires a bellhousing depth of 8 1/8 inches or more.

 

Why a computer will help you

If you are racing in Pro Stock, Pro Modified, Top Sportsman or Pro Street, you need a data logging computer. No other tool in your trailer will help you more in getting you clutch combination correct. By monitoring input shaft RPM, Engine RPM and output you will generate information on how much the clutch is slipping (or not slipping) on launch and through the gear changes. In addition, RAM technicians will be able to better help you analyze your runs for optimum performance. Help with making your clutch work is part of what you should get with a good clutch system, and that's how it works with RAM.
 

What we need to know to build your clutch

Do you have a computer? 


This information will afford us the best ability to get you in the right clutch and give you accurate starting points to set up in the car.

 

Here are some of the key features:

Pressure adjustments are made through the static pressure (A) and centrifugal pressure weights (B).
Mating surfaces are one piece and are available coated, as seen right.
Titanium stands are adjusted to reset the ring height measurement.
Dial height gauge allows simple resetting of the ring height during between round maintenance.  This is critical to consistent performance of the clutch.
