240mm clutch kit is kinda expensive and ships from Europe unless a US distributor has stocked them recently, which I doubt.
What's the 3rd size? I've only seen 215 and 240mm. Do you happen to know that they use the same pressure plate bolt pattern or not? The only ones I've had apart are early 4 or 5cyl diesel/gas 6cyl and m116 v8. I'm not too familiar with the next generation stuff besides knowing the dual mass uses the shorter input. The 6 speed c230 I'm using on my om603 is a 240mm clutch dual mass flywheel. I'll be doing some towing too so I'd like the bigger clutch even after the dual mass is toast. I know I'll need to have a pilot bearing extender to match up with the shorter shaft but do you know if the pressure plate fingers end up in the same place with a dual mass and single mass setup?
