bigboybanshee Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Yeah, you'll have to cut your clutch cover and extend the part that goes ever the clutches/basket, etc. The lockout is installed on the outside of the pressure plate. All you do is pull the bolts out of your pressure plate, put the lockout over it and bolt it down with the longer bolts provided with the lockout. It can be a slight pain in the ass the first time you do it, but after you do it once, it's simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theshee Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Id get a pancake bearing while your doing a lock up. Could save you a big head ache in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zach45 Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 what is the advantage of a lockout? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RZBansheeMan Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 It is RPM activated weights that lock the inner clutch hub to the outer clutch basket leaving it impossible for slippage. I would have to say that it is mostly for dune / drag use, I'm guessing from 75hp + . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zach45 Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 so like on a ported motor its useless.... only thing is clear clutch cover... what about ported 4mm stock clyinders.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansh-eman Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 i would hesitant to say "useless" , they are not bad for any motor for the simple fact that a clutch will lat you forever. They are not an absolute must unless your pumping out big numbers, but they are still worth having. only thing is your shifting will become harder because of it. so most guys o with a over ride as well with them.

If you have any doubt about doing a 4 mill do it. If you decide to do it later on down the road you will probably have to get new cylinders if you get a some what agressive port job.

jbooker82 Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 I would get a direct drive lockup and clutch cover. Direct Drive makes a 100% new cast aluminum clutch cover so you dont have to cut your stock one and weld on or epoxy on the extension ring. Plus it gets rid of that vent that goes in by the water pump, and it is thicker around where the kick starter is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
