Product Details

The McLeod 4980-00-06 Soft Lok is a purpose-built drag racing clutch assembly designed for Ford FE Big Block engines (332–428 cubic inch) from 1958 to 1976. Featuring an 11-inch diameter, 1-3/8-inch x 10-spline hub, and 184-tooth flywheel with zero balance, this assembly is engineered for maximum performance at the starting line.

Key Features:

  • NHRA and IHRA record-holding clutch design
  • Low static clamp load delivers a light pedal effort and soft, progressive clutch engagement
  • Launches harder off the line with reduced tire spin compared to conventional clutch setups
  • Adjustable spring pressure allows fine-tuning for different track conditions and power levels
  • Available with optional counterweights for high-RPM balance
  • Aluminum flywheel construction reduces rotating mass for quicker revving
  • Sintered iron friction disc provides consistent, durable friction characteristics under race conditions
  • 11" x 1-3/8" x 10-spline specification fits Ford FE Big Block applications
  • Zero balance (0 bal) flywheel for use with externally balanced or neutral-balance FE engines

What's Included:

  • Soft Lok pressure plate
  • Sintered iron clutch disc
  • Aluminum flywheel

Important Notice: The McLeod Soft Lok is the most widely used McLeod clutch assembly among drag racers and is the most popular clutch in the McLeod racing lineup. This unit is NOT recommended for street use. It is intended exclusively for competition drag racing applications.

This was my first order through autoplicity but I doubt it's my last. They had the best price by far on the K & N air filter I was looking for. The price was right, the filter was packed well, and the shipping was fast. No hassle transaction. Great job autoplicity!

I searched the entire web looking for the best price on my item and found that Autoplicity beat everybody else in price & quality. Search no more!

It is the way all on-line purchases should go. I got the item in 2 days, even before the email that it had shipped! Only negative is that the shipping cost was 35% the item cost. But it was still less that others with "free" shipping.

Right item, right price !

This was my first time shopping with Autoplicity after finding them on a froogle.com (google shopping) search for low priced Hawk brake pads. The shopping experience was great, checkout was smooth, and the prices were unbeatable. I only give five stars for perfect experiences, and this was almost there. My only gripe is the order was placed on Friday and not shipped until Tuesday, with the shipping confirmation email going out Wednesday. I guess I'm spoiled by Amazon same/next day shipping and instant notifications. It would seem the notification issue could be fixed easily... Thanks Autoplicity - I'll be back!

Very easy

I've thought about this...Better communication would be a plus. However, the shipping is quick and I did get an email telling me my product was shipped. I purchased window visors for my '07 Silverado. I will do business with Autoplicity again.
