no it should be fine but since you took it out id resurface it, or go ahead and get a lighter flywheel

Dont go ebay. Spend the extra 150 or so on a ACT, Exedy, etc...

It is like 35-40 to resurface the flywheel, so get that done at least, if not a lightened flywheel never hurts.

Why not? Its not like he is making a bunch of power... An ebay clutch would hold up just fine. I had one in my Laser Turbo AWD that wasn't stock for about a year before I sold it. Never had any problems with it. And I drove the piss out of that car.

And depending on where you go for the re-surfacing, I only spent $25 for Doug's Machine Shop in Portsmouth to do it. brought it in at 10, they had it done before lunch. Though I wouldn't recommend any other work to be done there besides that.
