Ok so stock VW style, you can use genuine VW WBX and put the bigger end at the head or the newer CB stainless racing push rod tubes if you want a on piece design, after that its more personal choice with the 2 piece tubes

Sorry to be a pain!!
can you recommend which clutch disc (I have a Kennedy stage 2 plate)?
Which release bearing?

Basically the setup I have works really well for the street and used to run strip a little (I want to run strip next year). The equipment I have does not have any makers stamp on, so not sure what has been installed.
I'm not new to this and know my way around an engine, but I am a bit new to the tried and tested equipment that is around today, a lot more of it!! (used to have quick vw's in the 90's (ported and polished, etc, not 'bolt on') and also have a charged 30HP.
I want to install what works well and lasts in the right way.

Thanks for any input

No problem for me to help Smiley that's what forums are for, sharing information Cool  I would use a super daikin disc, don't get the cheaper normal daikin

Just about to do my 1st performance 25hp engine so maybe asking you questions next Grin

Thanks

So do you think a standard release bearing (I have a close ratio IRS box, modified for an oval chassis)

Vintage speed performance, check out "souring the Volkswagen", first published in '59. Very interesting read.

Just fitted a set of csp push rod tubes. Then went in very easily with only a small amount of pressure on the Spring. They are seated, but are they meant to go in so easily??!!
