Looking at all options, im leaning towards vivas lightweight fw. But I kinda dont want to stay stock clutch.

Thoughts?

Harder to launch, slightly quicker rev, no difference in mpg.

Beautiful work, but I don't think you'll be able to machine it later.

Getting ready to tear into one the last owner said he cheated a disc in which I take to mean he bought nothing else but the bare clutch disc. The clutch won't release all the way which makes it getting into 1st at a stop something you shut the thing off to accomplish. Drove it home just fine -I don't need a clutch to shift. Not enough travel to get a clean release on other cars has been due to a bent/damaged bellcrank/pivot arm and I don't see that part listed anywhere Dealer only? Anyone replaced one?

Zero internal manual transmission parts available anywhere. Many people tried, zero succeed finding anything.
Pivot arm and boot you might be able to get from the dealer. Call and find out.

Neither? I'd suggest stock.
