Hello all!
I have a 225mm clutch at the mo which I assume is standard on the AYP block,
I have been looking for clutch kits but not sure what to get... I need a flywheel aswell.
I have seen some kits from the u.s but they are 228mm..... would this fit if I got the whole kit i.e clutch and flywheel etc.?
They say the original flywheel weighs 20pounds & the uprate flywheel weighs only 12.5pounds.... I dont know much about transmission so I'm not sure if its too light where it might affect the balance of the engine?!
Or can anyone recommend a clutch kit for around 270hp?
Hope I made sense! I dont know a great deal about these engines etc but im learning!

Thanks
 

Craig!

I'm running a SPEC Stage 3 Clutch w/ SPEC Billet Steel 12lbs Flywheel and once you've bedded it in and got used to it its fine, bites well and doesn't slip one little bit!!

If your interested I have a kit here which I bought for a friend who no longer needs it, the kit is Clutch, Flywheel, Pressure Plate, Thrust Bearing and Bolts which I'll be selling for £440.00, cost me £520.00 and its never been out the box!
