A833 + clutch question : 68 318 engine

Maybe I'm confused (likely) but I'm sure my 69 - made for 1970 a body a833 has the larger 727 slip yoke ?
and agreed the machine shop drilled holes and ground like crazy on my diaphragm clutch to get it to balance.
since then I've changed both flywheel and clutch and have noticed no difference. But next winter break I'll address all that and likely change clutch again. The op is talking street car with street tires? Wouldn't a diaphragm clutch be a better daily driver ?

The only thing a diaphragm pressure plate is good for is the manufacturers. They are much cheaper to produce. They are not better to drive. That stupid Centerforce counter weight system is a POS. All you have to do is balance 1 of them, and you would tell everyone to stay away.

The biggest issue is they are not adjustable. I don't know anyone who would buy a nonadjustable carb, but a nonadjustable clutch is thought of as trick.

Marketing works.
