Which clutch!!!??????
I have a 97 f250 7.3 with 4:10 gearing, my clutch is getting light and I doesnt pull like it use to, so I decided my tax return is going into a new clutch. I know south bend is one of the best, but what I dont understand what the "solid flywheel" conversion means and the " dual mass" fly wheel. Also I have herd a few others such as LUK and Centerforce. what do you all recommend, could yall give me some suggestions please?

Depends on the upgrades that you plan on doing. I would go with a a single disc-clutch that is rated for like 350hp so you never have to worry about it again. Also i would go to the solid flywheel. I dont know the actual difference between it and the dual mass flywheel, but i know that everyone changes it to be more reliable.
Good clutch would be a South bend Con O or Con OF and it is rated fore like 350 hp. |

I would say go for a South Bend if you dont want to worry about it while adding ponies.

I recommend that if you don't have many mods and plan on keeping the HP low than don't over-do the clutch. I installed the South Bend CON OFE which is rated for up to 450HP on my basically stock F350. It started slipping underload with around 10k miles on it. I was mad! I couldn't pull up a hill hard or even get on the interstate without it slipping. I talked to Beans about it and they said it's possible that I didn't have enough HP to break it in which would cause this. I installed an edge evo and it slipped once and been fine ever since. Besides that little mishap I've been happy with it.

I've been real happy with my Valair clutch with the HD hub. I got mine from Raul at Stealth Automotive for a great price.
