I trashed my flywheel at the Glen last week. While I'm probably going to go
with a Tilton set up over the winter, I needed something in a hurry for a
race in two weeks so I ordered an aluminium 1500 Fidenza flywheel from Ted
S. I'm going to use it with a 3 rail tranny, MK4, 10 spline 7 1/4, disk.
The crankshaft is already drilled out to accept 7/16" bolts.
I bolted the parts together today and took some measurements, there's a ~
0.037 difference in thickness, from the crankshaft surface to the fingers
on the pressure plate between the old setup with a stock pressure plate and
the new one which I'm sure will not be a problem but are there any unknowns
that I won't find out until I have everything bolted together and in the
car? Stock MK1 Girling master and slave.
I used a Fidenza flywheel way in the past, not this model, and I remember I
had to take some material out where it bolts to the crank because I
couldn't get enough clutch travel to fully disengage. Anyone using this
setup now and have and tips or warnings? It's so much easier to make
changes before it goes together.
thanks
