911 SC clutch replacement - disk recommendations?
My 911SC has the tranny and engine out for service work.
Stock clutch is down to the rivets, so time to put in a replacement. John Walker who I totally trust with my tranny rebuild simply recommends the stock Sachs clutch, but I always hate replacing OEM when I have a chance for a performance items instead. Car is 95% street usage, might see some tracking and autocross in the future. Stock CIS engine but with SSI headers. Big concern is I don't want a really stiff clutch pedal on the street. I'm thinking of at least the 911 Sachs Power Clutch, the Pelican Super Clutch kit, or maybe a Centerforce. While I'm in there, would an aluminum flywheel be suggested for my butt-o-meter dyno? thanks all for your tips.

If nothing else, the power clutch has more clamping force and it is not hard on the leg. I installed one last August (Pelican Super Clutch kit). Centerforce seemed to be a $$$ for my needs.
There have been threads on the light weight flywheel and it seems that they are really meant for track conditions. Stick with the stock flywheel. Dave

I think the power clutch is the aluminum pressure plate? I just installed one and am very pleased.
I wish I had coughed up the extra bucks for the aluminum flywheel. The difference in rev-up is noticeable with the alum PP. DO IT ! ![]() And good luck with the whole project.

Found this old link, and think I'm going to go with the Sachs power clutch
Sachs has a power clutch kit, aluminum pressure plate, and better disk: http://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/shopcart/911M/POR_911M_Tclutc_pg1.htm#item1 How many people use the PowerClutch in their SC?
