QUARTER MASTER RACING CLUTCHES General Clutch Maintenance Instructions Flywheel Inspect for physical damage and cracks. Inspect ring gear for excessive wear. Check friction surface for flatness. Maximum allowable warpage is .006". When resurfacing the flywheel, the step height of .100" +.000"/-.002" must be maintained. (Quarter Master offers a flywheel resurfacing service for a nominal fee.) Clutch Housing Check that the pressure plate and floater plate(s) slide through the housing freely. This will ensure the clutch will release properly. Check for cracks from high mileage, discoloration from excessive heat, and grooves cut into the inside diameter by the friction discs due to bell housing flex and misalignment or a worn pilot bushing. Clutch Pack Inspect for worn splines, cracked hubs, loose rivets, and cracked or bent discs. Measure the discs and replace when the minimum thickness is reached. Floater Plates Check for flatness. Maximum allowable warpage is .006". Measure the thickness. Minimum thickness is .177". Pressure Plate Check for flatness. Maximum allowable warpage is .006". Measure the thickness. Replace if below the minimum specified for that particular clutch. Clutch Cover Check diaphragm spring for discoloration from excessive heat. Check for excessive wear on spring fingers from release bearing contact. Check for cracks on aluminum clutch covers after extended service. The clutch cover is not a field serviceable item. (Quarter Master can rebuild your clutch cover for a nominal fee.)

The painstaking process that engine builders do to port cylinder heads to exacting shapes and smooth exhaust ports for maximum flow should be the same foundations used to construct an efficient exhaust system. Notice the merge collector (see fig. 1) is completely fabricated out of pre-bent tubing that is the same size as the primaries. The cone that is formed greatly streamlines the critical transition from the primary pipe to the outlet pipe. Another benefit of this collection device is that the collector being conical in shape (and the inside tapering cone as well) produces the 'venturi effect', which aids in extracting the exhaust gases out of the cylinders.

Warning:

1)The installation of this kit will involve contact with the engine exhaust manifolds, and other components of the exhaust system. DO NOT attempt to install this kit until these components are cool the touch.

2)The installation of this kit requires the vehicle to be elevated. Use properly rated jacks, jack stands, and /or vehicle lift, and ensure proper safety measures are in place before working beneath the vehicle.

Steering Shaft Shield Installation

Without elevating the vehicle, raise the hood, ensure the engine is off and cool to the touch.

With the reflective surface facing out, wrap Shield SS1 into a tapered tube around the steering shaft, with the small diameter facing the front of the vehicle. (See Figure 2)

Hold the shield on one end with the seams overlapping approximately 1/2 inch. Join the seams with aluminum tape. Continue forming the tube and joining the seams using foil tape until the entire length of the tube is covered. Securely fasten the tape to the shield by applying pressure along the seam

The completed shield should form a smooth loose fitting tube around the steering shaft.

Installation Preparation

Elevate and properly support the vehicle. Never work under a vehicle without first using recommended s using jack-stands or mechanical lift locks.

Ensure the exhaust pipes and manifolds are cool to the touch.

Remove the side sill covers and the factory aluminum heat shields in front of each toe box.

To properly install the Viper Heat Shield Kit, follow the sequence below. It does not matter whether installation is started on the driver or passenger side, only that the steps below are followed in order, for either side.

COSMETIC ENHANCEMENT:

If desired, sufficient aluminum tape is provided with the kit to seal the edges of the fiberglass insulating panels. Simply form the tape around the edge and seal it on both sides. Please note; taping the edges will not improve the performance of the shields and therefore is not required.
