- Installing a clutch so that it is properly aligned and will perform as designed for its intended service life. - from the 74 f100 roller 5.0/T5 Swap series.
Absolute clutch advice. Thanks, the tip to run a tap through came in as an incredibly sound tip saved me from some likely major headaches.
Stick the pilot bearing in your freezer for a couple of hours, set on a nice cold can of beer, take it out to the garage, and quickly install it. Works great!
When torquing the flywheel bolts just stick a Phillips screwdriver through the flywheel and it will catch on the blocking plate where the starter goes
I love all those new parts and that's a nice diaphragm the style pressure plate you have there I've rebuilt the old 3 finger pressure plates on the floor with a bottle jack underneath the truck because I didn't have a press
i was tempted to use that free ten inch unit i had sitting there, decided against it when a whole entire new set up was so darned cheap !!! 80 bucks for everything, and i like the clutch finger style better for throwout bearing life
@@ThunderHead289 can you share the p/n's and where you picked them up at fort that price?
Exact video I needed to understand what I am looking at, Thank you.
Just a few notes for others that might be doing this on a late model 302: The flywheel bolts go into the crankcase, so make sure to use the thread lock as a sealer. Or as ARP does in their kit, use threadlock on the threads and a sealer under the bolt head. Second note: early model clutches use SAE hardware, late model stuff uses metric. And with metric you usually have three dowel pins in the flywheel for the clutch to sit on. Hammer or press the dowels into the flywheel before mounting the flywheel onto the crank.
So with a 1970 F100 they dont take a dowel pin?
Would you use Red loctite under the bolt head?
@@andrewmcgill4957 You need sealer on the threads not under the bolt head.
@@dri50 my bad. will red loctite create an oil seal? Because the crank bolt holes go through into the block. I was going to use high temp thread sealant.
Very helpful. I know jack about trucks and cars and taking on a F100 project with my 16yo daughter. UA-cam mechanic all day! Sxs ATV’s, snowmobiles I got you! Trucks not so much!
Nice job. Your bracelet and ring were causing me some anxiety. I always take off my rings now after having one get snagged off my finger. Fortunately only a bad abrasion but my brother in law lost part of a finger when his wedding ring was torn off.
Enjoy these videos. Keep it up!
thanks so much - being in the middle of a build, i pretty much have to record ha.
love your videos
Thank you very much, i really appreciate that !!!
The flywheel size depends on your bell housing size , the 10.5 and up ( truck size, maybe bronco) won’t fit inside of a 83-93 z3-z6 bell ( maybe far back as 79-93) , I had to use the ten inch but157 t flywheel , and if so you’ll have to go a 3/4 starter or nose ( instead of the 3/8 if you can find one , power masters the only one I know of that has one for that t5 swap
Don't forget to clean the oily finger prints and shipping oils off the flywheel and pressure plate with brake cleaner.
you are darn right
If stock cam ,The fifty something flywheel off weight for the 289-302.
The twenty something for the 351W.

Love you videos learn i lot from them ...thanks for shoed..take care
hey, i really appreciate that - thanks so much.
Hi are the clutch plates supposed to make little noise when you shake them thanks
Always clean off flywheel and pressure plate surfaces. Most new parts are covered with some sort of rust inhibitor.
I probably should have mentioned that I had done that. Sometimes I just assume people would know to clean off the oil. - you are right. Probably should mention that
ThunderHead289 I know you are quite capable but some people are looking at this as a tutorial and not cleaning that stuff off will glaze the clutch disc surface.
you are 100 percent correct, im kind of irritated with myself that i failed to show that.
guess i need to build another engine to demonstrate !!!
@@ThunderHead289 It would have been nice. I put my clutch in like the video said. I noticed my new flywheel had oil on it so I soaked the middle disk in oil. Now my clutch won't engage when I had it?
another idea for torqueing down the pressure plate. crow foot wrenches, use the torque wrench on the end.
That is a bad idea as the torque is no longer applied in a concentric manner.
I have a 302 motor the flywheel has small bolts that holds the pressure plate on its not the 5/16 bolts can you tell me what model year motor I have
really needed this video, thanks
so a 302 motorplate doesnt fit a 289 engine? i have bought a 10 inch flywheel for the 289 t5 conversion and the plate between motor and transmission is from a 302
Forgot to Mention the Lovely Ford Crankshaft / Flywheel Shims .... But Overall Great Vid
Thanks for the knowledge❤
Great videos!
i really appreciate that, thanks so much !!!
Great video, bump
One quick question. How many punts of torque does the clutch needs for a Ford f100 1972?
Thank you
luke i need help. i have a 95 f150 with the 300 inline 6. i have to replace my clutch and am worndering since im going to the 11 inch clutch what size bolts go in the pressure plate. the fly wheel is pre drilled for both 10inch clutch and 11 inch clutch but the pressure plate bolts are a diffrent size.
You didn't use any clutch alignment dowels??? I did not see any when you were installing is why I am asking. Do you ever get vibrations while driving?
There are a few different types of clutch mounting hardware - there are units where the shoulder of the bolt locate the clutch. I never had any vibrations, it’s still in the truck today and did the full power tour 2019 3000 miles without issue.
Put probably 30k on the truck since I put this engine together for it.
hi tell me Windsor 351 ford econoline '94 automatic transmission can be swapped for manual transmission?
Where did you get those license plates for your truck? I'm looking for '76 plates for my D100.
I simply bought them off of ebay - searched 1974 vintage iowa plates.
they arent registered. i have the real plates in the truck. did the same with my 65 galaxie. drove it all the way to VA and back. no one ever stopped me
In some states, like Virginia, you can actually register vintage plates as long as they match the year of the vehicle. #themoreyouknow
What are the bolt sizes for pressure plate doing a swap and no bolts
Im doing the same thing in my ranger 4x4 roller 5.0 and having trouble finding my clutch setup what starter would i need to use with an 11inch setup like this? And if you have links to the clutch and flywheel that would be greatly appreciated. Also someone told me the transmission 4x4 variant of the t5.
I'm working on something interesting. I'm mounting a 6.8 v10 zf transmission to inline 6.
You didn't clean the faces before assembly - always clean the surfaces with brake cleaner before assembly.
the 351windsor is 75 ft lbs with loctite.
I'm just asking out of curiosity because I need to know how big is a flywheel for a 302 motor to have a 3 speed on the column
match the part on rockauto and check the item specs - usually 10" i think..
When everything is installed does the clutch disk have free play? Or should you not be able to spin it?
That's what I need to know..did you ever find out.
Is the input shaft the same on the t5 and the 4 speed
How do you know if the torque converter needs attention?
I have no idea, im showing a manual set up here - i generally stay away from power robbing automatics. my intensive knowledge there is limited
Manuals don't have one so that makes it easy.
You should do a walkthrough with a C4 transmission install on a 5.0! Thanks!
thunder head i was just wondering when you take a late model efi 302 and put a carb set up on it do you run a 50 oz balancer\flywheel???
yes i do indeed. im making a series on swapping on over right now actually. check my recent f100 stuff in my recent uploads playlist.
sweet thanks man
Thanks
So how can I tell if I have the right flywheel for the clutch set up?
If it works
I know that’s a dumb question but it’s really important I’m without a car walking all over the city until I figure it out
What particular set up are you workin on????
It’s a t5 5 speed I’m putting in my z28 1989 going from the 4 sp auto to the 5 Spd and idk if the flywheel I got is the right one or not or if the drive shaft will fit

@@ThunderHead289 thanks I'm trying to install a clutch in my 1999 ford f150 what a pain
Where you at in Iowa? I'm from butler county!
I’m originally from Grundy County-Dike.
No 3 locating dowel pins for the pressure plate?
apparently not on this one
patw52pb1 not all aplications require the dowl pins....and most replacement flywheels will have the provisions for them
Every Ford is/was equipped from the factory with pressure plate dowel pins to precisely align and positively locate the pressure plate on center to reduce vibration, prevent fastener and clutch failures.
They are also there to share the torque loading in shear.
Usually Ford OEM and many aftermarket replacement flywheels do not come bundled with new dowel pins or fasteners, however they are available separately from Ford, Ford Performance and the aftermarket such as ARP or from a decent machine shop and are well worth the cost.
+patw52pb1 very well said
if I don't have the pressure plate installed on the dowl pins can this keep me from getting a clutch
Wheres your shop located
Central Iowa
12inches is my minimum >;J
something is up with the notifications I got no notice nor is the video on my new video subscription list and I've been a sub a long time weird
The Dude
i notice too samething they are controling the internet sound weird but is happenig.
victor correa something is definitely weird now I can't find this channel at all not in my subscription list not on a yt search I only knew about this video because I seen it on G+
you are not the first to mention that. youtube actually has unsubscribed some of my buddies. ericthecarguy has mentioned this also on his channel
ThunderHead289 that's the weird part it said I'm still subbed...when your channel finally showed back up on my subs list....only reason I knew about the video is I stumbled across it on Google +....when your channel wasn't visible on my list I couldn't even search you out....it was as if you never existed on yt
fired from youtube lol im sure my luck will actually run out someday.
yes, youtube needs to up their game in the quality department
I'll
Keep your oily fingers off the flywheel surface and disc surface smh
Dude you have got to be kidding me SMH
@@ThunderHead289 hey it's your car lol
First
thanks, appreciate that. finishing up the next video on my 74. bit too long for my liking, trying to cut it down.
Love the vids I just picked up my next project a 92 f150 flare side in pink you don't see those every day
heck no, you definitely do not !!!
