I've seen it both ways, people using the Stage 1 or 2 KEP pressure plate. What are you using and/or what's recommended? 3.0L to 901 for street use.
QUOTE 9" STAGE 1 223 ft. lb. This pressure plate works well with small Porsche 911 powered 914's or small V6 camper vans. Enjoy good holding power and easy pedal effort. 9" STAGE II 273 ft. lb. This is one used for larger V6 and stock V8 offroad applications and is used by winning unlimited class offroad racers. Also very popular for use in V8 powered 914's under 350 HP. |

I am running the KEP Stage #1 because I wanted to have a safety built into the engine and transmission. I expect the clutch is in the middle to low range for a 3.2 engine which is being used for street only.
I had a Stage II clutch on a 914-V8 I build in earlier years and it felt right for that combination. In evaluating the sixer to the v-8 I felt the stage I would be more to my liking and needs. My car is just a long trip road car which I built for dependibility, not for breaking down in the "middle of the Majove Preserve". Steve Hurt |
