What clutches are people using?? i am just about to order a load of parts to rebuild my engine and have become stuck for what to do with my clutch. Should i use a standard metro turbo clutch. Or could i use the early type clutch with a uprated diaphragm and clutch plate? I have a early lightened and balanced flywheel and backplate. The engine should have around 120 banana. any help appreciated. ron

The earlier setup is capable of handling greater torque, and also is easier to get uprated parts for. I think all the big horsepower boys are running the early set-up, with uprated components e.g. rally type plate and grey spring.

toms right, some people say you don't need a grey, I use a grey, with both sintered and rally plate, the clutch still slips at max torque,
