Tough luck mate.

Recon box with a warranty from us £750.00 + VAT. API [ not internet ] Exedy performance organic clutch capable of 400 / 400 £295.00 + VAT APi light flywheel £150.00 + VAT exchange.

349/354 is not particularly high power/torque and the TY 754 box that you have is capable up to 380 odd before it starts getting marginal. I'd offer old age as the probable cause [plus a bit too much ''enthusiasm" on the gear shift ].

Changing to PPG is an option if you intend more power than 380. 6 speed is another option, but either way you'll spend over 2 grand by the time it is in and working. Probably 3 grand for the PPG.

Give me a call if you wish to talk it all through.

Kind regards - good luck David APi
