I can't seem to get the pressure plate alone. I have to buy it as a kit with the clutch disk.
So with that said, it's $260 for the pressure plate and stock clutch disk from Autozone.
A stock camaro disk is about $100. Centerforce about $150
so say $360-$410 going that route, and having a stock corvette disk laying around. That I could probably sell for $100 shipped, recouping a bit
Or $460 for a Ram from rockauto.
Unless Andy Almighty knows where one could get a pressure plate all by itself...
Andy almighty probably doesn't buy as many clutches as I used to
If you call Fort Wayne clutch and driveline, ask for Scott. When I had the C4, I had him make me up a dual friction with an unsprung hub. I think it was like $180 for the pressure plate and disc.
I've used his clutches behind very powerful supercharged engines, strip cars, etc. Never a problem. Lot cheaper than RAM or anyone else.
I don't like cutting .090" out of a OEM flywheel because of risk of it warping or exploding, but so far nobody has had one fail so I guess it's ok. When I had my C4, I ran a normal 4+3/sbc flywheel, and ran a ZR1 pivot stud I got from CentralCoaster to make up for the geometry change.
