Id come across an article about those ages back while looking for something else, couldn't remember what they were called! The only think that puts me off a bit is having to swap the flywheel, which was lightened and balanced as one unit with the crank and clutch.

The pre verto would cope ok I think. The RTS is the best option but like you say you have to factor in a flywheel change and all the rest of the verto gubbins too. I ran a similar setup to you in one of my old cars and it worked fine with an orange spring so if you go for a grey and a rally plate I think it will be ok. |

It would probably be best if you knew what was in there to start with. I presume that until recently it was working fine?

Makes sense what you guys are saying, I'll whip the end cover off as soon as I get chance (probably weekend) and see what the current clutch situation is, and how worn and what type the friction plate is. Presumably they have some means of identifying the pressure plate, if it does happen to be an uprated one?

10 points to jonny f, clutch contaminated from a leaking rear crank oil seal. What is more of a bugger is that has an AP Racing friction plate that is barely worn in. |

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
