The clutch is a Tilton 7.25" Cerra-metallic, 2-plate type which has a raised friction surface on the flywheel of the same size so it will not cover the area with machined windows. It is my opinion...
I have a Professional Products balancer with removable weights but, without added counter-balance in the crank, you have to compensate with offset weight in the balancer and flywheel.
My goal is to reach 150 (just once!) in my future 289 FIA powered by a slightly massaged 351 Cleveland I'm finishing.
Since I have barefoot skied at 69 mph, speed skied at 85+ behind my former...
Well, I finally have a 351C engine that has been balanced externally using a 28 oz. harmonic balancer and a Tilton neutral balance flywheel. Instead of being able to internally balance the crank,...
Well, I decided to go with the Tilton cerametallic 7.25" OT-II Rally ultra-high ratio clutch and Tilton 9 lbs. billet steel flywheel (not cheap) setup... mainly because I wanted to use a 157T...
Alan,
I'd be intersted to know if Bill's Cobra has "sintered metallic" disks, which makes it a "racing" clutch with little more than being "in or out" of engagement, or "cerametallic" disks, which...
I've had good service in being able to talk to techs and help with putting together a package that will work for my application. Unfortunately, no one in our circle really knows much about Tilton...

I'd appreciate input from anyone who's had experience with Tilton Clutch-Flywheel assemblies, preferably the complete Tilton Flywheel-Clutch-Hydraulic Throwout package. But any input or tips on a...
Thanks for the input! I'll give him a call.
The photobucket pics show a clockwise speedo. Are these not the latest pics?
Did you also replace the shifter?
Are the wheel widths the same 7.5x15 front and back?
Tire sizes are different?...
How long have you had it and what have you done to change it? What does it need?
Thanks,
Paul
Yeah, as far as I know, David Kee is the ONLY one selling the aluminum Toploader, and it seems reasonable, I guess. I was mainly seeking anyone who might have used one of his aluminum Toploaders and...
I'm in the process of building a 351C (full Edelbrock kit) that will drive a Tilton clutch with hydraulic T.O. and (David Kee aluminum?) Toploader to power a FIA I plan to purchase from Unique in the...
