Well, I want to find a place in the US where I can buy a stronger clutch for a westfalia diesel, now It's equipped with a TDI engine and the clutch slip a lot.

Need pressure plate with correct clamping force .. up to 1300lbs

Tintin, here is their webpage for Volkswagen clutches. They have a Stage II than can handle 220 ft. lb. and a Stage III that handles 260 ft. lb., I would think one of those would do great for your TDI motor.
