TH200 transmission question
For those that are using the 200 transmission....how many fiber plates are you running in the forward clutch? I had a broken fiber with no fiber left on it and two other plates burnt in a 5 plate pack. I ordered Alto red clutches to fix it but wasn't aware there were thick and thin plates. Of course I got the thick ones and had to make it a 4 plate pack. Wondering if it's going to last or if I should get the thinner plates and tear it back down? It's in a Stock LT1 car. Thanks.

How much clearance do you have now? Do you know what it was originally?

Re: TH200 transmission question
Alto sells a "power pack" for the 200r4/200c, they allow you to get 5 in with a normal plate and 6 with a thin plate. But yes you need to triple check for the cause of failure too.

Re: TH200 transmission question
I actually initially ordered that package but then realized it was for the direct clutch so I cancelled and ordered a master overhaul kit instead not realizing that the clutches were different thicknesses. That direct clutch package seems like it would have all the correct parts if I can't buy the individual plates separately. Thanks.
