stock clutch power

Post by millionflame »

Will the stock 1.8L V6 clutch hold the power sufficiently for a 2.5L ZE??? Or, should I upgrade to a stage 2???<P>Thanks, Aiden. :)

I´m using a replacement clutch set from my old 1.8 it ran with the old engine for about 8 months before I replace it with the KL, and I´m still using the same clutch set, so far it is holding pretty good ,I can tell this because here in Caracas we are use to race on the streets almost any time or at any stop light.

Thanks! I think I got my answer, so I'm just going to shoot it and hope mine holds out until more funds come in. :)
