5 speed 300d turbo

Yes, I have the shifter, rods, x-member ..everything. What I originally had was a 240D that I put the 300D turbo in when the 4 banger went at 350,000 miles. I tried all the gear ratios and did settle on the 346's. It still will break the tires loose from a dead stop. I would really like to try the 280 fw & clutch combo because the disc/pressure plate is bigger, but the fw doesn't have nearly the mass as the 240D fw. i am not pulling the crank and balanceing it with a new fw! My mechanic here ( a GOOD one) talks about a " double mass" fw for the Euro stick shifts. WHERE DOES ONE GET PARTS FOR A EURO CAR???
Thanks, Tim
