1.7 Clutch Friction Plate + Trust Bearing

Post by tommysb »

Found out that Volvo have discontinued these...
What would be my best bet for getting hold of a new friction plate + thrust bearing? It's going to be used in a 16v conversion, so needs to be reasonable quality, I assume.
Cheers,
Tom

Cool, thanks Kaos. Been looking at Ebay, and noticed this

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SPORTS-CLUTCH-KIT ... 1|294%3A50

A 'sports' clutch for a volvo 340.....Hmmm....

Any one know if it'll make a difference? I'll be using the clio pressure plate, so my guess is 'no'.
