RE: Pressure plate info

["Dan-the-man" <danws69@earthlink.net>]

ahhhh...sorry... I didn't have any of the measurements with me, and in
retrospect, I should have used metrics instead of inches. Didn't mean to
cornfuse anybody.

If you are running with the 'smaller' flywheel, may I suggest you do get a
bigger flywheel and change all that stuff out. It really does make a
difference :)

This is different...

Dan Bubb is thinking that they are supplying an 8V 210mm pressure plate,
as a replacement for a 16V 210mm pressure plate.

You had a 190-200mm flywheel and clutch, (1.5/1.6/1.7), the 1.8L 8V uses
the same flywheel as the 16V (A1 and A2).

Hope that clears it up...
