has anyone changed there clutch with one of these superchargers. Did you remove the supercharger or drop k member? thanks

[06RedfireGT]

i haven't changed the clutch with those superchargers but just from general knowledge i know that there would be no need to remove the blower, and im almost positive you dont have to remove the k member. you just have to drop the trans.

[05mustang_kb_charged]

tried dropping the trans and the supercharger hits the firewall, i was wondering if it would be easier to drop k member or pull supercharger off

Agreed remove the trans you dont need a new clucth unless you powershift not speed shift= Granny shift

my stock clutch is holding up pretty good with the whipple, no problems to report.

went to track last night and first pass was 12.7@109 after driving 93 miles so made one more pass 12.6@109. let the car sit hour and a half went 12.3@113, let sit for hour 12.3@112,put race tune in 12.5@112 with race tune, car would quit pulling at top end of 3rd and 4th and the clutch smell started. the last pass was with race tune and it made 50 more rwhp on dyno and didn't pick up at all

[cams-shelbycobra07]

I take it you power shift then with those times

[05mustang_kb_charged]

no, push clutch, let off gas, change gear, relaese clutch, stomp on gas,
don't want to break anything just yet but that all changed just bought a wrecked 06 auto gt and thinking about 3 valve fox body

you could get elevens with a powershift I told some kid at the track he beat his fastest time and he didnt do it right lol

[05mustang_kb_charged]

hear that hopefully get 11's next time with clutch, slicks, and driveshaft

[06RedfireGT]

hey man with powershiftin you could touch 11s. with slicks, clutch, nad DS you'll be low to mid 11s.

My hellion kit is only throwing out 420rwhp right now at 7 psi and my clutch went out in 2 weeks! I didn't even drive it that hard... it never gave off the burn clutch smell??? just punch the gas and the car was not as fast and rpms would rev without getting anywhere fast.... also noticed sometimes it felt like it wasn't even in gear

[05mustang_kb_charged]

same here i scraped kb tune and went with custom tune 466 rwhp and 499 rwtq, and was only picking up 14 mph from 8th mile to 1/4 mile and with kb tune 412 rwhp and 422 rwtq was 2 tenths faster and 6 mph. and was picking up 24 mph from 8th to 1/4 mile. at top of 3rd and thru 4th car just quit pulling

To get back to your question, I take it when you go to pull the trans your having to tilt the motor back a bit in the engine mounts and this is when the blower hits. If you don't have enough clearance to seperate the motor and trans because of the blower touching the firewall, then the quickest thing to do is pull the blower.

[05mustang_kb_charged]

thanks emay, that's what i'm gonna do.

the hydrolics are tricky on these cars, if you are not experienced then it's a big no no to do on your own... you will need 2 people to do it
