Sachs clutch question
 
I have a sachs clutch in my 1968 911 and am getting ready to put the rebuilt engine back in soon (2.0 with 2.8 RSR pistons). The car came with a Sachs clutch and best I can tell it was okay for the short time I was able to drive the car before tearing it down.

I took measurements and it's 9.27mm thick. It looks to be okay and it does not look completely worn out. I'm not sure how a new one would compare.

Any thoughts on how I can tell? There are no numbers on the clutch that I can read any more.

I can always put another one in at a later time but would just like to get an idea on how to tell the amount of wear.

Thanks!

Correction. The clutch is a Centerforce Performance Clutch. I'll call them tomorrow as well.

It is a good idea to use a new clutch disc at every rebuild of the engine.

What you should really be concerned about is the flywheel- replacing the clutch is easy if you find it's too thin. Replacing the flywheel is impossible without an engine drop.
