Throwout bearing question

Hi,

 

I looked for info on hydraulic throwout bearings. Sounds like the stock pressure plate and clutch won`t stand up and will have to be change.

 

Can somebody confirm this? I`d like to keep my stock ones for simplicity and because they are brand new(The previous mustang owner had them replaced last year).

 

Thanks,

Fire.

Maybe we should delete this post from the newsgroup. Nobody sounds interested, and it makes our forum look bad.

 

And since the tranny question is answered elsewhere...

I have been using the stock cluth and pressure plate with a hydraulic throw-out bearing. The clutch and pressure plate have given me no troubles. The car has been driven 70 miles / day for 9 months and has ~ 40 passes at the strip. The engine is nearly stock and I am using street tires(no slicks). I average high 1.8 to low 1.9 60' times. I have never had any trouble with clutch slippage. The weak link will be the transmission and not the clutch.
