RAM Competition Pressure Plates
Whether your ride has just been mildly modified or transformed into a real fire-breather, you need to consider RAM competition pressure plates. They're available in both fixed and adjustable static-pressure configurations, incorporating explosion-resistant plates made of steel or aluminum—plus features such as chrome-vanadium springs, heavy-duty covers, and high-strength hardware. RAM produces the three major types of pressure plates: diaphragm, with its reasonable pedal pressures and quick, clean releases; and the more heavily competition-oriented Borg & Beck and long styles. For drag racing, Circle Track, or Street/Strip applications, RAM supplies the clutch performance parts you need.

RAM Billet Aluminum Flywheels
If you're building an all-out competition car, then you need a lightweight flywheel that will allow the engine to rev quicker and not eat up a lot of power. RAM billet aluminum flywheels greatly reduce rotating weight to permit quicker revving and higher power output, but still retain enough mass to resist heat distortion that could adversely affect clutch performance. RAM billet aluminum flywheels are made in America and produced in house. All RAM flywheels are computer-balanced within a 1/2 oz., surface ground (which results an optimum mating surface), and are ready to run out of the box. SFI-approved, these flywheels are CNC-machined from certified materials and have rugged steel friction-surface inserts. RAM's billet aluminum flywheels feature a 1/4 in. thick friction insert to dissipate heat away without distortion. Technical note: As it spins, a heavy flywheel stores more energy than a lighter one. Engine and gearing combinations that require more power or inertia to make the car launch without bogging the motor need heavier flywheels. However, heavier flywheels accelerate slower. Lighter flywheels create less inertia at launch, but accelerate quicker through the gears. To effectively use a lighter flywheel, you must consider the car's weight, operating rpm of the engine, and, most importantly, the gearing. Too little gear will cause the engine to 'bog' on launch.

RAM Super-Duty Pressure Plates
RAM offers super-duty clutch pressure plates in a variety of styles and sizes. The Long Style is the preferred pressure plate for competition. Each unit provides a combination of static and centrifugal pressure, and these characteristics enable the clutch to meet the car needs and track conditions. Long style clutches provide additional pressure through centrifugal force of the levers against the pressure ring. Pressure plates are available in a variety of static pressures including non-adjustable, adjustable static, and counterweight to allow precise clutch tuning. All competition long units feature a heavy cover with spring guides. Order the model recommended for your year/make and engine application.
