Found a true performance clutch
Found a true performance clutch
So after doing some research, the clutch for the getrag 4 speed turns out to be a 8.5" 10 spline by 1 1/8" unit, which just so happens to be the same as a mustang with a 2.3l (which also strangely enough have quite a following). I did some digging and came up with this:

or those with the need for a racing clutch:

and those who are on a budget:

Im thinkin ill go with option #1.
The Chevy S10 uses the same splines, don't know about the diameter.
You can always cut the pressure plate ring deeper than the clutch face is cut when the FW is resurfaced.
That 2.3l isn't the NA turd but the Turbo Coupe/Mustang SVO motor. Unlike the 5.0l that motor can put out about 5-600hp on stock internals, so that might be a very stout clutch indeed.
So the whole kit bolts up, or just the disc?
FWIW I have been VERY happy with the Gwagen clutch. Not so happy about the weight of the FW. I would recommend trying out a different pressure plate on a 240D, I believe that will do the job.

How much dose it weigh compared to stock? The Gwagon flywheel I mean

Did the Gwagen Flywheel get rid of the driveline vibrations in your 4speed conversion?

Kamel did you ever end up using any of these clutches?
Im gonna need to change out my clutch real soon, and would like to install somthing better than stock.
Winmutt, the Gwagen clutch bolts right up and its an improvement over stock?
I'm still using the stock clutch after 5 years without a single problem.

There is a list of pressure plates and clamping pressures in the FSM. You could stick with stock clutch and get a higher clamping pressure plate.
I have what I think is a 300d flywheel. I'm pretty sure it takes the G-wagen clutch but it has a lighter ring than the G.
I'd be happy to trade for the heavy G flywheel. I can take some measurements later.

The G flywheel should be lighter than the 300D...It is physically the same except for the maching done to accomodate the larger flywheel/PP combo.
The 300D takes a 215mm combo v. 230mm for the G.
Garage - there is a place nearby you that builds custom clutches, IIRC they are in Colton I will have to ask my brother for the name.
You can also try try Clutchnet - they will build what ever disc you want and modify your stock 240D plate (new) to whatever clamping pressure you want. They are the people that will do my clutch work when I am ready for it.

my new sachs apparently not.
all 3 Clutches on the top, has every 10 splice my has 26 can not fit then.
Did anyone try the clutches at the top yet? I have a 4 spd. Looking at option for upgrade. Mine probably needs replacement. I plan to beat the crap out of it. I will be putting out a lot more power than stock.
