new motor will be putting out a little over 175hp/torque, I have a brand new 6-spring clutch and brand new pressure plate already for my stock /4 motor....will these be okay for my new motor??
according to KEP, the stock setup is good for 180ft. lbs, with the 914 being light and not having too much rear tire, should I be okay or should I spend the extra $100 for the larger heavier duty rated clutch package?? as copied from Kennedy Engineered Products QUOTE Stock - (for comparison). Holds 180 ft. lbs. of torque. Stage I - 215mm Pressure Plate. Holds 230 ft. lbs. of torque. Stage II - 215mm pressure Plate. Holds 270 ft. lbs. of torque. QUOTE 9" STOCK 200 ft. lb. 9" STAGE I 223 ft. lb. 9" STAGE II 273 ft. lb. 9" STAGE III 378 ft. lb Are heavier duty clutch and pressure plates available so that if for some reason KEP no longer carries them I can get a replacment from the normal P-car places? |

Used a 2.2 ball, the pivot has to be moved a bit.. the geometry is a bit different between the 2.2 fork , and the 2.0 fork. Ill have to look at my spare tranny, I think I set that one up for the pull clutch also...
