I have installed one of these. I have not had the engine out since installing it. So, I do not know how everything is working. I do know that the clutch seems a bit lighter than before. However, I changed the clutch plate at that time too because I went from course spline to fine spline with the new OD transmission. So, I cannot say for sure what has changed the feel of the clutch. I think I also put in a new master and slave. So, it really could be anything. I will be taking it out sometime in the next 6 months. I'll have some input then.

I am running the SV flywheel and smaller clutch. I would like to have the bigger clutch. Does anyone know if the bigger clutch can be obtained in the fine spline?

On the other hand, I did lighten my flywheel. I know you are not supposed to be able to do that on one of the flywheels. I do not remember if it is the earlier flywheel or the one I have.

I will say that I do not really have the confidence to dump on the clutch as I do with my other car. Not that I do it everyday. But, ya gotta have fun some times.
