      • im predicting you would have been better off with the stock clutch that will slip instead of breaking the E series. i had 100 miles on a BP swap and just floored it at about 3K in first and BANG!!!! but i didnt have the 2 lower bolts in the L starter bracket and it snapped the case all the way around so it makes me think........charlie1717 has had a BP+E series for i believe 20K+ with no breakage.

        • yeah it will probably explode. but i cant go more than 1/2 throttle. if i accelerate harder than the b3 it slips. so it makes having the bp pointless. im still in the market for a f series. if i see one i'll get it but in the mean time this will have to work

          • Only one way to find out is what i always say. i put in a brand new oem clutch and it slipped the first time i shifted fast with about 70 miles on it, should have given it a longer break in period. I have a known GOOD F series minus a TOB id let go on the cheap cheap because id have to ship it, if your interested. PM me.

              got the new clutch in today. here are some pics. looks to be pretty good quality for a 100 dollar aftermarket clutch from an unknown company lol.

              i hope to get this installed sun and find out how good it is.

                • its really crazy how small they are. i was not surprised at all that it wouldnt hold the bp lol. the f series isnt much larger which is really weird for a trans that will hold the bp with a stock clutch. it has to be right on the edge

                  • i have a buddy with a boosted SOHC B6 ,running an f series very succesfully. maybe a little underpowered compared to the BP, but it has one of those spinnie whistle things

                    • i got my new clutch in this morning. pedal feel is even lighter than that cheap advance clutch i had in it before. it says to break in for 500 miles so i hope it will hold better

                        • How's that el-cheapo $100 (Bahnhoff?) clutch doing?? I'm thinking about getting one, but waiting to see what experience others have....

                          BTW- If I had a big nose crank pulley, I'd give it to you. At least your customers are
