valve guides + clutch
Turbo Mini Forums

i think my valve guides are shot so i am looking to invest in some new ones.

i was just wondering if these would do the trick by what minispeeed say there the dogs bits but thought id ask you lot.
and would these need reaming like the bronze manganeze ones ?

also my clutch is slipping now so any recomendations on a decent uprated clutch setup ?

cheers.

Cant comment on the guides apart from sounding pricey!! but my minispares bronze guides seem to be doing very well.
As for the clutch imo up to 120bhp orange diaphram, ap race/rally plate, lightened steel flywheel and backplate. up to 200 (+ a few ponies) bhp as above but grey diaphram. This is for pre verto (long clutch arm). Also be worth a search on here about how to set the clutch before fitting it. Also worth fitting a fully floating primary gear bush while your in there if you do many hard launches.

The thing is, if the guides last forever, t he valves don't. Bronze guides eat valves that aren't chrome stemmed.

Also:"Also recommended for standard road cars if money is no option."

If money is no option.. Helll yeah, money is no option. Does that mean I can have them for free?

vegard , is your period ever going to end ?
