A series of clutch related questions - plz help

[drunkenalan20v]

Ok here goes,

I have and 82 UR running an 20v (a mixture of AAN & 3B and possibly some ABY), the flywheel is from a WR with a WR clutch and pressure plate. the clutch is slipping and its almost new less than 1000 miles im guessing the increase in torque is too much for the clutch, the gearbox is a 5spd from a CQ, and the starter is 3B.

I have a ABY flywheel that i want to use, with the spacer plate thingy, if i get an ABY clutch do i have to change the starter?

is there enough adjustment on the mounts to account for the 8mm spacer? Are there any other mods that are required if i fit the ABY parts?

I have a 3B clutch ready for another engine, will that fit in the WR or the ABY flywheel or are they too deep or shallow,

Could there be another reason for the nearly new clutch slipping.

Advice would be good chaps

3B clutch will not fit an ABY flywheel unfortunately.

Don't use the ABY flywheel it's too much hassle retro fitting the dual mass. Get 7A or 3B flywheel and use an uprated 3B clutch.

Starter motor won't need to be changed the ringwheel is the same on the flywheel from my knowledge

i ve got a cq series 2 running an aby
uses a ur friction plate and 3b pressure plate
that slips too!
kestrel engineering are going to make me one up when i can get the parts out to send to them

Why would anyone choose to fit an ABY dual mass flywheel?

To prevent wheelspin

I think you've stuck u pa wanted thread but just get a 3B or 7A setup and OE clutch, expect £200 for the lot.

the wanted ad is for the other Audi, but as long as I can get one setup ready and working for castle combe on the 20th im not too fussed

Those are known for slipping at boost levels higher than stock.
