i'm going to be putting a d16y7 block in my car with my d16z6 head. i need to know which clutch and flywheel to use? i have a crx si tranny.

 

I used a 90 transmission with a z6 block and i used the 90 flywheel and clutch and it worked great!!!!!! you have to adjust it quite a bit to get it right, otherwise your clutch pressure plate will constantly be slightly grabbing your disk and it will wear it out faster as i found out the hard way. I think that is the way all clutches are on every vehicle though.

 

i think if you udjust the clutch cable it should fix that but not sure. but yes you will need whatever matches the tranny. simple as that. good luck

 

thanks a lot the swap should go pritty smooth this thursday!

 

i think the rule of thumb for d-series is to match the clutch year to tranny year, if im not mistaken.

The 88s use a 21-spline clutch/input shaft, and later years are all the same at 20 splines. The 88-89 clutches are smaller in diameter, I think 200mm vs 212mm (90-91) or something. The later ones may be larger. I'm running a Z6 clutch/flywheel/PP with my A6 block and 90 Si tranny. You just need to make sure the spline counts are the same, and then match the clutch/PP/FW together. The cranks will bolt up to all flywheels, and as long as you're 89+ on the tranny you're all set.

The clutch wearing thing has nothing to do with the engine/tranny, it's from an improperly adjusted clutch cable.
