This King cobra clutch will be acceptable with a T5z tranny and this motor , right? with the engine coming with the 50oz flywheel.

it should work, right?

What engine are we talking about? The one that came with the T5Z tranny to it? If so, then yes.

Ok, well it doesn't say what size the flywheel is. I think that the king cobra clutch is for a 10 1/2" flywheel while the older size was a 10". Anyone know for sure?

It will work. The newer 302s or 5.0 engines use the 50 oz flywheel, which the king cobra clutch is designed for. Just a side note, I have used both the Ford King Cobra and Heavy Duty clutch. I would save the $50 on the KC clutch and go with the HD one. Both have the same holding power, with the KC have an easier pedal. I didn't think that the HD clutch was any harder then the KC clutch. I don't bother with the KC anymore.
