I need to replace a flywheel anyway and the clutch assembly within next 2000 miles, so I'm trying to decide if I want to perform a clutch enlargement procedure. Any help & comments are greately appriciated.

P.S. Except help & comments about "Sex and the city 2" and "Twilight" saga. Didn't help with power steering.
The obvious answer is that you need more Julia Roberts films in your life...

Yea, it's fairly simple - let some Russian guy resurface the flywheel, and then leave him a truck for a week for reassembling. Will kill the clutch from the start

That's really spectacular process. Anyway seems like I found a way to import parts that can't be bought at Ebay. Though it costs me $13.5 per kilogram. Anyway I will replace the whole clutch, including both cylinders, and this time I'll do it myself.

I try my best to speak your language I even take English lessons weekly to improve my speaking abilities, but it seems like it's not really helpful so far

Anyway - what do you guys think - will this one fit 11" clutch? I couldn't find any additional info, I only know that it fits '93 4.9

Or, to hopefully make it more simple - are 4.9L and 5.8L flywheels interchangeable?

You know we're all messing with you.

Like I said, the 10 or 11 will bolt to the flywheel. I think I even used the same holes on the flywheel for both. I think someone else said something about using different bolts but I didn't have to.

I know But anyway today I decided to give up my English lessons and to start learning Uh-muhr-I-Kuhn ©jljde

Being serious - I will generally have one attempt in ordering flywheel and clutch kit - shipping cost just multiplies part price by 2, so I just can't afford a mistake
