16V clutch...?
« on: 28 August 2008, 16:37 »
 i thought the 16V boxes were the same layout as the 8V ?   Just got my self the clutch for the 16v and its huge!  has a normnal type release bearing unlike the 8v with the push rod and plate.

Just hope i got the correct one.

yea this must be a diffrent clutch layout.   All i know is the 8v fly wheel goes over the clutch assembly, where as this one is more like a normal layout... didnt realise that.
