I noticed online a Sach performance and Sachs regular clutch kit. Priced about $30 more for the performance version. Both show six springs, I can’t really tell the difference. Any suggestions? Price is $344.00 for the performance kit.
Also will Be replacing the flywheel, as it is scored. My car is a 74. 1.8L. The clutch system appears original to the car. Anyone know the best deal out there? Looking for suggestions. Thanks. |

I have used both on recent (same car) 6 conversions engine installs. I used the standard clutch and it worked fin to hold power from 911 2.4 E spec motor (140HP at wheels). I keep the same disk but used sport pressure plate with 911 2.7 RS+ motor (204hp at wheels) I installed recently. Sport has held that power fine so far. If you have a stock 4 I would use standard as it is more than capable for stock power.
