9 times outta 10 they will be 200mm jobbies
the 180mm 12-1300 clutches were marginal even at 1600 let alone once u go bigger
get the engine number off the block that will give a fair idea of what it probably has

if the motor is an oversize 1600 to 1900 then you will need the 200mm clutch for the extra power

I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

turns out the motor i had in my car was an 1800 (85.45mm pistons i think) with a 200mm clutch. that i foud and was going to put in was a 1800 with a 180mm flywheel.

after a dig around the yard i managed to find a 1800 motor with a 200mm flywheel. now all i have to do is swap everything over from the old motor as the new 200mm motor is stripped down a bit

ive seen 12volt flywheels that take a 228mm clutch to suit 1600 engines. this would make a good choice for a high performance motor application i reckon. saw one on ebay overseas some time back.
