South Bend Clutch Stage 2 Drag Clutch Kit for Volkswagen Dasher 1.6L 1976-1980 - KF294-02-HD-DXD-B

So, you’re looking to upgrade your ride with a clutch that can handle some serious power? Let me tell you about the South Bend Clutch. This isn’t just any clutch; it’s a blend of OEM specs and heavy-duty performance that’s perfect for everything from everyday driving to some hardcore racing. As someone who’s been in the trenches of automotive work, I can vouch for the quality you get with these kits.

First off, South Bend Clutch is a family-run operation with four generations of experience under their belt. They know their stuff, and it shows in their products. When you buy from them, you’re not just getting a piece of machinery; you’re getting a commitment to quality and service that feels personal. They’ve built a solid reputation for not just making clutches but for making them right.

Now, let’s dive into some of the specifics. This kit comes with a single clutch disc—perfect for performance applications. It’s got a 210mm disc diameter and is made from ceramic, which means it’s designed to grip hard and handle the heat without breaking a sweat. The 6-paddle design really sets it apart, giving you that extra bite when you need it. Just a heads up, the flywheel isn’t included, so keep that in mind if you’re planning a full swap.

Installation is a breeze thanks to the alignment tool that comes with it. You’ll appreciate the sprung hub style, which helps smooth out those rough engagements, making your shifts feel more natural. And if you’re worried about the throwout bearing, don’t be—it's included and designed for standard applications.

This kit is specifically made to fit the Volkswagen Dasher 1.6L from 1976 to 1980, but it’s also compatible with the Passat from the same era. When you’re out there on the road or the track, you want to know that your clutch can keep up with your driving style, and this one does just that.

In short, if you’re in the market for a clutch that combines performance with reliability, the South Bend Clutch kit is worth considering. It’s built for those who take their driving seriously and want a product that reflects that passion.
