Product Features

  • Ultimate Performance upgrade.
  • Full faced design.
  • Semi-metallic carbon disc.

  • 10 Spline
  • Fits Late 01-04 GT, 99-04 Cobra, 03-04 Mach 1.

Ultimate Performance. If you have a high powered forced induction setup on your GT, Cobra, or Mach 1 and need a clutch that can take the heat while still having good street manners, the SPEC Stage 3+ is the blend of performance and driveability you need for your 'Stang. The Stage 3+ combines the type of compound used in the Stage 3 Clutch to deliver a clutch capable of handling up to 850 ft-lb of torque, but a full-faced disc design means there is less of the "on-off" feel associated with true race-only clutches.

Street and Strip. The SPEC Stage 3+ Clutches are designed to be the perfect clutch for a high powered street or race car. Unlike other pure "race type" clutches, the pedal feel of the 3+ is still worthy of the strip, but not so unforgiving as a "puck style". Combining elements of a race clutch with a street clutch means a Stage 3+ will hold up to many passes on the strip while still letting you drive your Pony to and from the track.

Premium Quality. The sprung hub, full face design of the SPEC Stage 3+ features a carbon semi-metallic friction material for unsurpassed bite and long clutch life. The Stage 3+ Clutch includes the high clamp pressure plate, the full face friction disc, a new throwout bearing and an alignment tool.

Value, Performance, Durability. When looking for a new clutch, trust Spec for the best in value and performance.

This Spec Clutch requires the use of a Spec flywheel for proper engagement. AmericanMuscle highly recommends the Steel Flywheel for this Stage 3+ Clutch to avoid warping and optimum results. See the drop down menu option above.

Technical Note. Because Ford made changes to the Mustang GT and Bullitt in mid year of 2001, be sure to check and see what kind of transmission type you have before ordering.
