jonboylaw Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I will need to replace my clutch and coverplate when it is time to put the engine back in (a long way off at the moment). Does anyone know the correct parts for this. It is a 5speed type 9 box mated to a Xflow. The engine is quite highly tuned (155bhp) so would an uprated clutch be advisable? Mostly road use, but will track it sometime. Jonathan ----------------------------------- This build has started :) 92 Supersprint, Ford LSD LA, RK AX Crossflow.

Area Representative Paul Richards Posted January 14, 2010 Area Representative Share Posted January 14, 2010 Suggest you take existing clutch to your local motor factors. They will take part numbers from it and supply correct parts. Don't forget to change release bearing as well as cover plate and driven plate. Alternatively give Redline a ring and order from them.

OliverSedlacek Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 I've found the standard clutch up to the job. A race clutch is horrible on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revin Kevin Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Jon, Assuming you have a standard 190mm caterham clutch, the best cover to use is AP part no CP3764-4 or CP3748-6 dependant on whether you have a straight finger or curly finger cover. It should be the later a curly finger although as long as you use the relavent CRB it doesn't matter. Plate wise it is AP CP 2257-9. I've used standard covers from my motor factors before without issue but I have had standard plates fail, basically by the cush drive springs eating there way through the clutch centre. Not sure about the cover but last time I looked Questmead was the best for price on the plates Cheers Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
