I previously acquired all the parts for a clutch replacement: flywheel, pressure plate, clutch, throw out bearing, and the clips, seals, bolts, washers, and bushing that go along with the main parts.

Two questions:
1. I have two clutch disks, a 6 spring and a 4 spring. Which would be preferred for street driving ?

2. I do not have a new flywheel pilot bearing; should I buy one before I start. And, would a VW parts house carry them.

Car is going in next week to replace everything, just want to have all the parts on-hand
