The clutchdisc can be made out of a different material, that doesn't
burn up as quick,and usuallythe pressure plate has heavier duty spings
in it--

Go for the HD unit----you'll be happier in the long run--and it's only
80 bucks difference---no big deal---

Later,

Since the tranny of my 87 syncro is out I am going to replace the clutch
throught bearing and so on. My question to the list is that I can get a
clutch kit from bus depot for 119 they also have a heavy duty kit for
199. Has anyone put in the heavy duty one in, is it worth the extra
cost? I would think the only difference is the thickness of the clutch
plate. Any thoughts out their?
Thanks
Adrian
