Description
This project involved the testing and evaluation of two products from the Racing division of Ace Manufacturing. The components that were tested include a 6 1/4" triple disc clutch, a new clutch disc material and a bronze coated floater. The clutch disc and floater were testing in a'2001 Pontiac Grand Am Race Car with an 1140 HP 568" engine. The 6 1/4" clutch was tested in a 2004 Chevrolet Cavalier with a NHRA Pro Stock legal 500" engine producing 1240 hp. The goals of the testing were to determine potential performance gains as well as evaluation of the window of operation as it relates to vehicle performance.
