Is yours broken? or do you need an extra one?

I can re-weld the worn in spots for you and put it back to stock if you need.

I've got one. Bearings probably aren't the best, but were working when it was pulled. $30 + shipping

Wasn't there talk of some custom versions or strengthened ones?

+1

IIRC, there is supposed to be a custom strengthened version from http://www.blaszakprecision.com/...

I emailed about it, but never got a response back.

I've got a used one that I swapped out at the track this last weekend. I'll even throw in free shipping, and the guide tube.

ST, what clutch and pp are you going to go with now?? My sprung 6 puk is really pretty awful around town. I'd be interested in something that gave me and the driveline a little less grief in traffic. Of course it needs to be able to handle a fair chunk of tq. Any suggestions?

Tool I have a brand new n/a fork you can have if you want to machine a little on the inside of each fork to fit the turbo T/O bearing. Youve helped me enough I will send it to you for free

If you want to change I can highly recommend the Southbend clutch feramic/organic disc. South Bend rated this disc at well over 600ft-lbs with the feramic/organic combination and higher with both sides Feramic. That was with the KEP I pressure plate clamping it. I have essentially factory take up and smoothness. Last year the guide tube broke and the rattling noise made me take it out after only 10,000 miles, but the disc didn't look worn at all. Have another 3,000 miles on it and working fine. www.southbendclutch.com

Is it broken in yet? It gets better with miles...
