I tried one of these once and it failed on the clutch relese arm :cry: had to take it all back out and fit a single plate 7 1/4".. Mine was tilton though, so hopefully yours is slimmer being as it's ap..

I spose I could of got round it by going hydrolic release bearing, but, that would of been more ball ache lol

Or just space your gearbox back a bit, if there's enough give in the 'shafts.

It measures the same height so fingers crossed just waiting for flywheel being machined and we will see

Sounds good mate.. Just make sure before you go bolting it all in (like I did :D) then think, oow I better try turning it over before I go too far :laugh:

I was also restricted on how much I could take out the fly wheel (due to standard TDC pick up) shouldn't be a problem for you, if run the Scoff trigger wheel??

Speaking to ap they don't think a 215 plate would hold up to it they recon it would split the centre plate and they are only rated to 300 to 325

I think one that you was talking about but I have at lot more torque plus his was around £1000 and mine works out a bit cheaper and rated for 500lbf
