I've seen a bunch of clutch options that are available and had questions.

What's up with all the different diameters?

Is there one size that has more or better options than the rest?

I've found a decent price on a stock 2.0 Sachs kit and am leaning this way now.

I'm hoping this thread will alter or prove my decision.

What will a properly installed and bedded stock 2.0 set up hold in torque?

I'd be tickled pink if ya'll say 200lbs./ft...

I do not expect to exceed this number, but I don't want to spend money on something I have to replace again shorty down the road.

If you were provisioning for 200lbs./ft which clutch would you chose?

Hoping for a PINK ninja here! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif)

Afterthought: Are there differences between 2.0 / 1.8 flywheels?
I didn't think there were but am not sure.

We've run Centerforce dual friction clutches in 914s and other vehicles on the street.

All 914 flywheels are all functionally the same. Have a good German one machined versus getting a new one (unless you're using a conversion flywheel to put a type IV motor in a bug). The old flywheels are better than the new ones which tend to be softer. While you're at it, you can have them lighten it. And, it's probably less money than a new one too.

The different sizes are because the flywheels from type IV buses are not the same and use a different size clutch.
