Clutch Help!



I currently have the Sachs Sport clutch. Not just the PP, but the whole thing.
Slips like a mofo at 7 psi on a cool day.
I'd give that a pass.
If you (and Sue Gordon ;^) can stand the in-out nature of the Spec
stage II I would go with that.
How about this. What if I take my engine out now instead of later,
pull off the clutch and ship you the Sachs sport clutch PP. That way
you'd get to try it without laying out the $260 or so that I paid.
Might work with your kevlar disc.
Slight rearrangement of my schedule, but no biggie.
