Pls help identify this clutch, change it or keep it?
 
Hello,
The car is a '72 with original 2.4L MFI and 915 transmission.
I pulled the engine to replace the oil seal behind the flywheel.
I was surprised to find this clutch. I haven't seen one like it before
and couldn't find it in the parts section. It is not marked "Sachs".
The thickness is 76mm.
Should I keep it or replace it, while i'm in there?

Strange. I don't see anything like it in the Pelican catalog to compare.

I would swap it for a new one, though given that it is the original.

Thats the rubber hub clutch of years gone by. Feared by some and tossed by many..

Yep , Borg-Warner made these among others I imagine.
The rubber center had a tendancy to disintegrate.

Thanks guys.
Time for a new disk!

You ARE going to purchase a complete kit, right?

That flywheel looks pretty beat up to me.

The SACHS sport kit is a great setup for a street 911.
