Default ACT CLUTCH Problem

I have a ACT 6 puck in my 2000 Civic Si and I HATE IT. I also have a 12 lb act flywheel, im going to pull the trans and swap in a exedy organic clutch, basically a stock clutch. Can i leave the act flywheel in there?? Will it cause any problems??

Thanks in advance.

As long as you can resurface the act flywheel then you should be set.

pretty much. why do you hate the 6 puck?
are you making enough torque/hp that you would need it

I hate how it chatters and shakes when i release, i gotta rev to 3k and let it out to make it smooth. also i have read so much that says it beats the crap out of the transmission, and i think its the reason i have a ripped cv boot tht im replacing this weekend with a new axle. so i want something milder.

SO why did you get the 6 puck again? Are you making that much power to justify running one on the street? The Xtreme PP with street disc is plenty for most cars. You'll just have to live with the chatter of a 6 puck because it is basically an on/off type clutch.
