Not sure on the drillings TBH but could be done even if new drillings required. Was the flywheel independently balanced? I would've thought so with that build. It will need balancing with pressure plate attached and spigots numbered. As for the bearing carrier I can't help much with how much to shorten as I fitted a TKO600 box at same time but it's an easy measurement to take from bellhousing face, remember to allow some for clutch wear in future.

Also worth noting - if you are intending drag racing with slicks then make sure you use ARP flywheel bolts and loctite them. Might also be worth discussing with experts whether extra location dowels are needed.

Going to order the twin plate clutch today.

I already have the ARP mounting bolts for the clutch cover.

I will see what the matching is like with my fly and then get it redrilled if necessary and balanced.

Barrie, who balanced yours?

I love the way we mix imperial and metric in this country. No more so than tyre sizes.....for example, 245/40 17 being 245mm wide by 40% aspect ratio by 17 inch rims.
Who invented this system, and what was he on at the time? silly
