Clutch replacement??
Based on my last post, after far too many hot-laps my clutch eventually failed. I stoped at the dealership to buy a set of new disks and they told me that it wasn't that easy on a 14. Apparently there is some specialized tool required to "measure" the height of the disks/cluthc basket, and then you have to choose from a variety of "optional" disk thicknesses. Was I fed a story?
Anyone have experience with replacing their clutch that can provide feedback/possible part numbers?

Buy new fibers, forget replacing the steels..........., and put it back together.
Technically, they are right, but it is splitting frog hairs for your app.

They are talking about stack height.
Like Nox said, just do it, it's importart to be in the range.
It's very easy to get in the range.
Ask for a 'stock' clutch pack , it may not be perfect but will work just fine.
