RAM’S FORCE 10.5: A NEW RANGE OF STRAP-DRIVEN CLUTCHES FOR FORD MODULAR AND GM LS-SERIES ENGINES

 

 

 Advantages of the new Ram Force 10.5 twin-plate clutch set:

·         Employs strap-driven assembly that transmits in excess of 950 ft-lbs of torque and transmits it quietly

 

·         Uses Ram’s 300-Series steel-backed friction discs for smooth engagement

 

·         Features an eight-spring hub assembly with urethane encapsulated springs that adds four times the compression rate of uncoated springs

 

·         Engages a pressure ring with a clamping force of 2,400 pounds

 

·         Utilizes a marcel spring (a thin, wavy device) that helps eliminate the “go-or-no-go” tendency that accompanies most dual-disc clutches

 

·         Features a billet aluminum SFI certified flywheel with steel insert that has sufficient mass to draw heat away from the clutch without distortion, yet overall weight averages 45 lb

 

·         Implements OEM installed height dimensions for easy installation–no modifications necessary

 

·         Presents a steel floater plate with surface-ground faces to the same tolerance

Diaphragm-type twin-disc clutch assemblies are vested with either “stands” or “straps” that secure the floater plate to the flywheel in relation to the sprung top clutch disc and the solid-hub bottom disc.

The chief criticism with the stand arrangement is noise. The floater has a millimeter or two to move about on its (six) stands as the car is at idle with the clutch pedal depressed or when it is released to move the vehicle.

Though not a concern with a racing application, it is an irritant among those with a street-driven LS1, 2, 3, 6 or 7 or a Ford Modular 4.6L or 5.4L.
