1.2 8v clutch vs 1.2 16v interchangeable

i was wondering while on the big break

i got like 5 good clutches for 8v, but not even 1 for 16v
8v clutch push bearing is same as 16v but 16v disc is a little wider than 8v, dont know for sure about plate

did anyone try putting 8v clutch on 16v car?

what if i take 8v flywheel and put 8v clutch on 16v car, problem?
8v flywheel is same as 16v?
will clutch get ****ed up faster or?
 
I think you will find 16V clutch is 190mm V 8V at 180mm, AFAIK 1.4 16V is 200mm. Clutch plate obviously is heavier to allow for increase in power. I think they are both interchangeable as bell housing is the same.

Match the flywheels - and yea should be good to go to be honest...

ECU make take 2 mins to figure out a new idle speed - but cant see any issue otherwise

I know people slot 6spd to 5spd no issues - as splines on input shud be same

So Yea - good flywheels to clutch and shud be good to go :)

It will fit but the disc is smaller and the pressure plate not as strong!!!!!!! In other words it is a waste of time, but hey, go ahead but don't cry when it starts slipping(y)
