Ultimate 16v Clutch Kit

[SailingFC at aol.com (SailingFC@aol.com)]

Welcome back David,

Is Wasser-Sport still around?  I haven't checked lately.

I'd stick with the known stuff.  I use a Sach sports disk and pressure plate 
(at 190mm, talk about old school).  I heard these are hard to find now.  I've 
never had any problems and I think I am "squeezing" at least 150hp out of my 
1.8L.  I also run a lightened flywheel and have no issues (maybe I didn't 
lighten it enough!).

Good Luck.

It's good to be back on the LIST after several years in hiding. Now my MK1
16v conversion is in full swing. I have just ordered a rebuild transaxle
from Kraftswerk. It (AGB) will have a LSD with 3.96 final drive and .71 5th 
gear.

Now I'm looking for the proper clutch kit to use.

Anyone recommend the Kevlar Performance Clutch Disc?

In addition, should I consider a lightened flywheel?

I have a lightened flywheel in my stock 1981s and hate it. It's very tricky
starting off in 1st gear, since there's no momentum  I end-up stalling out
and feeling like a idiot!

Any thoughts?

David Guido
