What is the difference between a Stage 2+ clutch and a stock clutch?

A Stage 2+ clutch, like this SPEC kit, is designed to handle more torque than a factory clutch. It typically uses a more robust pressure plate and a performance clutch disc, often with a sprung hub, to manage increased engine power from modifications.

Does this clutch kit include a flywheel?

This SPEC clutch kit (Part# SE793H) includes the clutch disc and pressure plate. It is designed to be used with your vehicle's original flywheel, though it's recommended to inspect and resurface or replace the flywheel during installation.

What kind of driving is this clutch kit best suited for?

This Stage 2+ clutch kit is well-suited for drivers who have upgraded their 1984-1987 Mercedes-Benz 190E 2.3L 8V engine and need a clutch that can reliably handle the increased power. It offers improved engagement and holding power for spirited driving.

About this part

Product Details

This SPEC Stage 2+ clutch kit is built for the 1984-1987 Mercedes-Benz 190E with the 2.3L 8-valve engine. If you've made some upgrades to your engine and need a clutch that can handle the extra power, this kit is a solid option. It's designed to hold more torque than the stock clutch, making it suitable for drivers who want a more robust drivetrain connection.

The Stage 2+ designation means this kit includes a performance-oriented clutch disc and a heavy-duty pressure plate. The disc likely features a sprung hub to help absorb some of the shock and vibration that comes with increased power, while the pressure plate offers a firmer clamp load to keep the clutch engaged under higher loads. This combination helps prevent clutch slippage when you're putting the power down, especially during spirited driving or when dealing with increased engine output from modifications.

When installing a performance clutch kit like this, it's a good idea to inspect your flywheel for any signs of wear or damage. Resurfacing or replacing the flywheel is often recommended during a clutch job to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the new clutch components. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for your original clutch assembly, simplifying the installation process.
