I've fitted a blown 1y engine/box to my dad's mk1 caddy
what cheap/uprated clutch can i fit to hold with a mildly tuned engine?? the stock one now is slipping like a ***, either due to oil contamination or just wear (most probable as it's right at the top of the pedal!)
I'm running the Mk3 gearbox so i'm assuming i need the complete mk2 golf 16v setup?
I know i should have changed it whist the engine was out but that's too easy, lol!
Thanks!

being at the end of the pedal could just be a mis-adjusted clutch cable. but if its slipping, i would change it out no matter what. and yea, an aba or 16v clutch kit will work just fine.

Stock should be able to handle a 1Y

it's got a turbo too :) i might as well upgrade a little to make it worthwhile.
the clutch cable adjustment cant make the pedal any better.
I'll check a UK forum to see what those guy's fit

can anyone confirm that i want a 16v mk2 clutch?
Thanks!

if you have a standard 020 trans (small 24 spline input shaft) and you want an uprated stock clutch, then you need an 8v clutch disk and 16v pressure plate. if you have a large spline 16v/mk3 020, then you can just use a straight 16v clutch setup.

i cant remeber which size splines the gearbox has! i'll have to ring around.

If you know the code, you can look it up.
