I know I will have issues as my 1.7td corsa slipped after some left foot down and that clutch had only done a few thousand miles hence the reason for the hunt for another option.
The standard friction plate has a diameter of 200mm which is the same as a 1.6 16v or very close iirc which is tiny for the 200 odd lb ft of torque I plan on putting through it ( the c20xe's friction plate is 220mm wide iirc and they only produce 149lb ft or what ever it is) so I'm going to see if I can machine my Td flywheel to suite an xe clutch and use an updated one.
Also didn't Baxter have an f28 fitted??? So what fly would he have used for that??
Baxter, F28? LOL.
That was kinda my point lolQuote:

Great build,this will be spot on.Nice attention to detail aswellQuote:

F28 would take some messing about to fit, because the size of the input shaft(bigger than f16/f20 etc) means you would have to spend hours looking for clutch part catalogues looking for a suitable friction disc.
I have an LUK book at home if you wanna borrow it..lol
I meant to comment on this the other day.
A, its really good to see Craigs shell living on!
B, love the fact its going to be different! Didn't baxter have nearly 200BHP out of his 1.7TD?
