Std bob-weights on a 11" Long clutch WILL hit the ribs cast inside Pantera bell housings. The factory found this out in 1970. Exceptions are:
A- Centrifugal clutches that use flat sliding weights instead of bob-weights on pivoting rockerarms. Centerforce-type are sliding wts.
B- 10" or 10.5" SBF clutches with small bob-weights MAY clear the inner ribs. The article assumed a stock 11" Long-style clutch.
C- Someone already tried it in that bellhousing and pre-smashed clearance in the structural ribs.
