Tilton Mistubishi EVO8 Package (98-1122) User Manual
Installation instructions, Mitsubishi evo clutch package
Description
Tilton’s Mitsubishi EVO clutch packages are designed to offer increased torque capacity
and reduced rotating mass. In addition, these clutch packages include a concentric hy-
draulic release bearing assembly that eliminates the stock external slave cylinder and re-
lated linkage. The clutch provides high torque capacity that enables you to “turn up the
boost" while it’s reduced rotating mass results in increased horsepower to the wheels.
The hydraulic release bearing self-adjusts for clutch wear and provides great pedal feel.
These clutch packages have been designed to be as “bolt-in" as possible, retaining the
stock 5/8" bore master cylinder to provide efficient and comfortable clutch modulation.
Note:
This instruction sheet is designed to supplement the general instructions
sheets supplied with the individual components of the clutch package.
installation
Flywheel
1. Install flywheel onto engine. Torque OEM flywheel-to-crankshaft bolts to factory
specification.
Note:
The stock flywheel was not designed to accept an input shaft pilot bearing. We
have designed our flywheel to accept a pilot bearing
(NTN part# 6202LLU) to support the transmission’s input shaft in high horsepower
applications. If you choose to use a pilot bearing, you will also need to install a 15mm
pilot extension on the input shaft.
clutch Discs
2. Install clutch discs into the clutch. For Carbon/Carbon clutches, orient the clutch hub as
shown in Diagram 1. For Cerametallic clutches, align hubs as shown in Diagram 2.
Be sure to align discs with an alignment tool or spare input shaft.
clutch
3. Mount clutch onto the flywheel with the supplied aircraft grade hardware. Torque hard-
ware to 18 lb-ft using oil or Loctite. The tips of the spring fingers should taper slightly
towards the transmission. The spring must not be inverted.
4. Test fit the transmission to the engine to confirm that there is no interference between
the clutch’s spring retaining hardware and the inside of the transmission case. There
should be .075" of clearance, but due to variations in transmission castings the clearance
may be decreased. If there is interference, you may have to grind the tips of the spring
retaining screws to be flush with the nuts and/or grind some material from the transmis-
sion case.
Note:
This clutch package is designed for use with the 5-speed (non-MR) transmission only.
