If you're serious about drag racing, the McLeod Soft Lok assembly is probably already on your radar. This clutch isn’t just another part; it’s a game-changer, especially for those of us who live for the thrill of the starting line. Now, let’s be clear—this isn’t something you want to throw in your daily driver. It’s built for the track, and it shows.

What I love about the Soft Lok is how it handles. With its low static pressure, you get a light pedal feel that makes it easy to manage, even when you’re in the heat of competition. The soft engagement means you can leave the line harder without worrying about excessive tire spin. Trust me, that’s a huge advantage when you’re trying to get the best launch possible.

This setup comes with adjustable spring pressure and even offers options for counterweights, so you can fine-tune it to your liking. You’ll get a pressure plate, a sintered iron disc, and an aluminum flywheel all in one package. It’s everything you need to get your Ford Big Block roaring.

Now, let’s dive into some of the specs:

  • Alignment Tool: Yep, it’s included.
  • Make: Specifically designed for Ford.
  • Throwout Bearing: Not included, so keep that in mind.
  • Spline: 3/8" x 10, which is pretty standard for our builds.
  • Ring Gear: 184 tooth, perfect for those high-performance setups.
  • Racing Application: This is all about drag racing.
  • Pilot Bushing: Comes with it, so no need to hunt one down.
  • Number of Discs: Single, keeping it simple and effective.
  • Hub Style: Solid, which is what you want for reliability.

In short, if you’re gearing up for some serious drag racing with your Ford Big Block, the McLeod Soft Lok is a solid choice. It’s built for performance, and it’s got the specs to back it up. Just remember, it’s not meant for the street—this is pure race-ready gear.
