read the parts about coil conversion:
View topic: DX to ABF conversion wiring - The Mk1 Golf Owners Club
as for clutch, no need for uprated ones on abf std sachs is more than good enough. dont think there is much you can do if uprated item is too heavy for cables to cope with! its not the hole on the bulkhead thats gone though is it, and cutting into the cable? if so get a couple repair patches from gsf and glue/weld/rivet them either side of bulkhead to strengthen it

cheers for the reply….
it's not the bulk head as thats got repair plates attached, the cable pulled apart under the pressure of pressing the clutch pedal…
it broke apart at the plastic clip that connects to pedal.. cable pulled through clip…???
anyone else had issue with heavy clutch using black diamond stage 1 kit….
thanks
