Hi All –
I am in the final throws of my conversion. At this point the tub is done and everything is bolt on. The only part that is not easily accessible/changeable without big headaches is the flywheel/clutch, so I want to make sure I don’t bugger this up. Attached is a picture of a flywheel that I located on another web board. I was told it is original, worked fine, and was only removed because of a motor upgrade. The last clutch I personally replaced was in my 1985 GTI, so my knowledge is limited to say the least (the VERY least!!). Can any of you tell by this picture if this looks okay? I would have it machined prior to install, is there a minimum thickness I should ask the seller to verify? Thanks a ton – Scott S Attached image(s)

You should be able to find an early 901, used, for about $125.00 ... maybe less.
As long as the metallurgy is good on the new one you show ... go for it. Oh, the new one you are looking at is missing the pilot bearing holder, spacer plate, and attachment bolts. |
