Daily Update- Clutch Performance

Still trying to figure out what parts from where go where. These are notes from the Yahoo GTX board:

------------------------------------------
Looks like you've got a 2wd bellhousing plate. The oil pans are slightly different.

MT

------------------------------------
You definetly have an extra hole in the spacer plate. That should not be a big deal as long as the four critical holes (the two with the dowels and the two top ones) line up (the others are nice to have but not critical). Do you have equivelent rub marks on the clutch that match up with the rub marks on the bell housing? To answer your stack height question, assemble your clutch to your flywheel and measure the stack height and let us know how high it is and what is the highest point. Several of us either have measurements (Greg?) or have assemblies we can measure and compare.

Bob

-----------------------------------------
it looks about right, the thickness should be a bit less than 2mm.

MT and Bob say it a 2WD plate, but it should work even if it has an extra hole tab. I would cut that extra tab off if it were me.

What combination of flywheel and pressure plate are you using?

Greg Downing

-----------------------------------------
A centerforce clutch is easy to identify - there should be weights wired to the clutch pressure plate springs. Again, can you measure your stack height
or at least measure the flywheel? I'll compare your measurements to my
spare.

Bob

------------------------------------------
I went out and checked the few I have here and no spring. The plates are exactly the same thickness 1.14mm the only difference is the extra mounting hole for the fwd tranny.
