3L 300E clutch options.

I have this fly wheel in my car with the 8" clutch I believe. Thanks to recent work on my car I am now slipping in 3,4,5th gears. This is a great problem to have (although it takes alot of work to fix). The W123 manual conveniently had a list of clutches and clamping pressures for different pressure plates. I cant seem to find this anywhere int he W124 manual.

So what is the strongest clutch I can get without braking the bank? The 16v is 9" but I am thinking that might be to big? I definitely noticed that there was about a 1/4" radius difference between the clutch I put in and the wear ring on the flywheel.
