Just ordered a flywheel from ttv to run an 850r clutch but no idea which clutch to buy, any recommendations? Aiming for 300bhp maybe 350 at a push, Sachs standard replacement good eneugh?

It is the measure of torque, not horsepower, that effects the clutch. And that is pitched against the pressure exerted by the cover and to a lesser degree the properties of the disk linings. The style of driving and mechanical sympathy are also very important as it is the degradation caused to the friction material and its equally important backing materials by excessive heat that are at the root of the problem.
