Goran,
Can you explain?
Are you suggesting that a larger total moment of inertia of the two disks is hard on synchros because it makes it harder for them to match angular velocities? I never thought of that, but it makes sense. Is that why the race clutches are so small in diameter, to make quicker shifts?
What do you think of this clutch with the organic disks:

Ok, I think two 10,5 dia disks will stress the syncros a bit.

Goran,
It's not small dia like yours, I think 10.5.

Mcleod is selling some over stock twin disk clutches on ebay. One is a race
clutch that probably fits with no issues, but it's not clear that it's
streetable. The other is their Street Twin with a Borg and Beck Long style
pressure plate and it looks like (from pictures on the Mcleod web site) that
the pressure plate is spaced away from the flywheel to make room for the two
disks, and it's nto clear to me that it will all fit inside a ZF bell
housing.
Does anyone know if there is room for the Borg and Beck Long style setup
spaced back from the flywheel (I'm guessing 3/4 inch)?
Thanks,
Ken
