Which Throw Out Bearing?

[Bacon]

Hi, I am matching my 72 block, to a Getrag 240 5 speed. I have a 228mm fly wheel, e30 m3 pp and disc. My question is which throwout bearing to go with. Thanks in advance, Bacon

muh- haa haaa.... WHICH E30 pressure plate?

there are 2, and they're in the aftermarket parts stream BACKWARDS!

As in the dual- mass plate's sold for single mass, and vice- versa....

Learned that the hard way...

If it was me, I'd use the 323 throwout bearing, but I'd test it on the

bench before I put it into the car.

Thanks guys....Got a low mileage used clutch unit....Thought it came off a single mass wheel...I have heard to use the 323 bearing. I talked to a gentleman at Aardvark, and he said to use an m3 t.o. bearing....I will try both....Thanks, Matt

I am doing a similar conversion do you guys know what the difference between the 323 and the M3 release bearings are is it just the interface to the tranny?? Also is this the correct PP part number 21212226505? this is what comes up on realoem. will this bolt up directly to the M10 flywheel??

TIA
