There is no way that somebody does valve springs and head studs and nothing else, as their first stage of mods. Either it has stock valve springs and studs; or more likely, it's had a fair amount of mods done including springs and studs, then old mate has returned everything else to stock to sell it, which leaves a lot of unknowns and potential issues. I say potential - could be fine, but start changing parts and upgrading power and there is a lot more scope for pain, and a lot more questions to be asked/answered. Back to topic, all the suggestions arronm made could apply. It may have a twin plate clutch, or a ceramic plated clutch, these often have a rattle. I would start by hitting up old mate with some hard questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordo C New Member 12 Member For: 5y 3m 12d Posted 14/09/19 08:52 AM Author Share Posted 14/09/19 08:52 AM Yeah I thought it was a bit strange as well. Just having springs and studs. How can I find out which clutch I have? Who can tell me. He didn’t mention the clutch, I just thought it was stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
