stiff clutch pedal help

I had a 10.95 that sounds like your clutch. It was a factory 440 HP clutch and pressure plate to fit on the 10.5 flywheel. Real sweet clutch but man, was it stout. It actually broke through the tube on the Z-Bar. McLeod recommended a diaphram clutch to me, untill I said I wanted to do up to 7,000 power shifts. I figure if you shift below that, go with a McLeod or Centerforce diaphram clutch. As others have said, plenty of holding power and much lighter pedal effort. I would not scrimp on a cheap clutch unless you want to get real good at changing them.
