Its Finally Time!

Past few weeks ive noticed the clutch slipping under heavy revs. On n off but now its nearly all the time. Having to creep up mph low reving atm so a new clutch is sitting on the box on my backseat n its gettin done. Now before me n the friend crack on n start ragging stuff out i just wanna know if thers anything to look for while wer doing it. Any historical quality concerns going on driveshafts or some nuts tht put up fights or anything. Or is it pretty much straight forward. N ive got a new sump to put on cos mine has a corroding spot. Will i need a new gasket ther or will it be okay. thanks

there,s no sump gasket ian, just sealer and 2 rubber seals, and what size is the clutch ?

i think its pretty much a guarantee you'll need new driveshaft oilseals for when you put it back together.

Frank,I've heard that K11's can have a "Light" or "Heavy" clutch,referring to the pedal effort.
Would this be down to the diameter issue ?

i doubt it mate, the 160mm one is probably marginally lighter
