Yes. Just look for clutch from turbo car of any displacement. For example, Sachs 3000 693 001.

I think you want an R clutch but I am out of my league here ... you're obviously getting good info from Azik09 but I suggest also send a PM to bmdubya118 and/or read his manual swap thread viewtopic.php?t=92486. He will have input for most if not all your questions.

So I am looking at flywheels, single mass of course taking your advice. But my next question is about weight; between 17.1lbs and 15.4lbs now my understanding of physics tells me that with the lighter flywheel I will just lose gear momentum when letting off gas, is there any other concerns that I should let sway my decision between weights?

I have both full sets, DMF and SMF. Tomorrow I'll weight both, just for interest :wink:

DMF weighs 38 pounds, and SMF weighs 36 (both are assembled with pressure plates and disks). No much difference, I think.
Dual, not double as I wrote above. Why didn't anyone correct me? :lol:
