228mm clutch ?

Post by ED2.4 »

Hi guys ,
i'm close to start my Oxyboxer engine building ,will be a 4" x 78 and Hp goal is around 230, street&strip use ,
and i wondering what kind of clutch disc and pressure plate you run on your engines with Wbx crank and 228mm flywheel?

and is a 200mm T4 flywheel compatible with wbx crank pattern ?

thanks in advance for your inputs :wink:

yes the type 4 is the same pattern.
I think the stock disc will hold.
used the stock clutch in a oval beetle with a turbo WBX 1,9 with ~200LBS/ft of torque.
as it is the torque that makes it lip , not HP :)
