Question for high output TDi builder/drivers

Post by silverbullet »

How many Nm are you reliably putting though your 228mm clutch and what is the spec?

I would like to hear from anyone who has covered more than 20k, how it has been used/driven and how much weight they are hauling about i.e. a Westy with a modified PD going to the Alpsrepresents a more realistic view than an empty panelvan driven in Norfolk!

The reason for my question:

Thanks! So the VR6 clutch complete can handle c.330lb.ft = 447Nm

It might just be man enough.

I guess that I will have to machine the wbx flywheel to suit?
