anyone got a 16v mk1 on a 1600 gearbox?

This is what I fitted to my car back in 2001 and Ive forgotten what clutch I used.

The clutch has now had it and I can remember the correct combination of pressure plate, friction plate etc?

Am I right in thinking 16v pressure plate 1600 friction plate?


cheers n advance

Yep, sounds right. The pressure plate is the 16V item (stronger springs, same diameter) and the friction disc has to engage with the input shaft, which on a 1600 gearbox is 22mm (on a 16V its 24mm).

Hello
My first ever post

 I run a 16v engine attached to a 1600 5 speed gearbox in my mk1 I used 1600 clutch, flywheel,and pressure plate because the 1800 parts are to big so the gearbox wont go over them. :D
