DANNLER Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 Hey guys. So im getting my manta soon, it has no clutch. The clutchplate is also missing, locally(south africa) i have not found any good leads yet for a replacement. Is there any later model clutches that works on the manta A? Or maybe does anyone have any part numbers of clutch kits that works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-400 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Hi Wayne, you can find them on several German webshops. An example: https://www.o-t-r.de/shop/ascona-manta-a/kupplungssatz-16-19/ So if the gearbox and clutch is out, think it is the moment to fit a new oilseal on that side of your engine. It's only removing the flywheel... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANNLER Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 @H-400 thanx. I was told today that the manta used the same engine as opel rekord aswell as chev firenza. And apparantly that the 2.0l rekord engine uses the same clutch. Have you heard anything like this? I discovered that the clutch plate is still included. So i'll just repad the clutch. Now i need a waterpump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H-400 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 The clutches are not all the same, a more powerfull engine has got a bigger clutch. So you have to measure the diameter of the clutch plate and look for a pressure plate that fits. You'll have the 4-speed box so the relaese bearing must be one for the 4 speed. The waterpump will be one without visco clutch, but check it first. Both waterpumps (with or without) are also easy to find on those German webshops. Don't forget to order the gasket. https://www.o-t-r.de/shop/ascona-manta-a/wasserpumpe-16-19s-motor/ Grts, Herman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
