Apparently these folks in Australia have them? They also list a heavy duty one for $277. Probably way too expensive to get it here.

Buying a wear item that I can only source from AU is not very appealing to me. I appreciate you searching that out for me though!

Nice find, Rick. Who knows how HD this is, but it's a part!

Shipping is $111. I think if you need something other than stock the Ram clutch and flywheel combo makes the most sense. Buy once and (hopefully) cry once.

I ended up going with the Autozone clutch. It has a lifetime warranty and I’ll allow myself 2 replacements before I’ll eventually upgrade to the Ram setup. I think the Duralast clutch should be fine behind the stroker, but probably not the new long rod motor.

Did you get the 9.25" stock size clutch or the 10"? The 10" works fine and has more holding power unless you don't torque the PP bolts enough (and loctite), OR you do high RPM clutch dumps. Then you might blow it up and hurt car, engine block, feet...

The 9.25 so I’m replacing the clutch disc and not my feet.
