Hi all!

I need some help with regards to building a CGT look-alike - but it's for 24 Hours of Lemons race, so legit $3000 body kit sets are out of the question.

The base car is an '82 924 Turbo ...

So, is it 1", or do 25mm clutches fit as well? What about the outside diameter of the splined end, can a 25mm bearing fit over them?

I want to avoid drilling/riveting unless I know the old and new clutch centers will match up exactly (in which case, I'd be all set). Do companies like Sachs use a common center section pattern for th ...

Most excellent - this is exactly what I've been looking for. So, 77mm bore, 73.4mm horizontal, 89mm vertical, M12 bolt holes.

I'll post an update as soon as I have something substantial. We have 2 ...

From poking around on the internets, I get either 94mm or 77mm center bore (for dowel pins - which one?), 73mm horizontal distance between holes, and 89mm vertical distance. I also need to have the wh ...

Ok, good call - I had spline count all messed up. My actual best bet is a standard 2.3l Ford clutch, 197mm. Nissan 190mm 23-spline clutch ALMOST fits, but it's 1.031 instead of 1", so I'm assumin ...

I have a 110hp engine that has 190mm clutch and a small-ish flywheel, that's going into an 82 931 chassis with stock torque tube.

So far, the best I could come up with is 1.7l VW Quantum clutch, 20 ...

Holy krapp

It probably walks all over the MG's of that vintage - more power in a smaller, rear-engined car. From the looks of it, rusts slower, too

Ok, would the "After" pictures be good enough?

I'll take some tonight

I'd rather do a Sprite or a Midget with a 30hp PMG motor and 6 batteries. It'd have a 30 mile range or so, but it would weigh about 1500 lbs with me in it

Big cars are too heavy to be electric, you ...

I did put it in an oven at 250F half-way through, worked quite well at loosening the inter-fin crud, and went unnoticed...

But dishwasher? I'd get castrated. Again, this wasn't a dirty fuel distrib ...

I KNOW!!! It was like a scene from a horror movie, only instead of red stains you had black.

But I got caught during the act, so I was busy cleaning up the house, doing the laundry, and washing the ...

Nonono, better - I matched it to a picture of an 850 Spider:

Apparently, those have an engine that would barely shame a small mot ...

Took me good 2 hours to clean the oil out of it, and another 2 to clean that oil off of the walls and tub. DEFINETELY don't let your wife/significant other see you doin' that. Repercussions WILL follo ...
