Is the flywheel affected by which type of clutch I use?

you can not use a 10.5 disc on a 10.0 pressure plate.

CF doesn't sell discs and plates separately, they're all sold in matched pairs.

Also, always replace the TOB when you replace the clutch.

Sorry I think I am being unclear. The new 10.5" clutch I am picking up is a clutch disc and pressure plate. This is to replace my old 10" clutch disc and pressure plate. What I am wondering is if the old throwout bearing from the 10" long finger clutch will work with the new 10.5" diaphragm clutch? I am not sure if the diameter of the throwout bearing changes with the bigger pressure plate or also if throwout bearing changes with the different type of clutches (long finger vs diaphragm). Sorry for all the questions guys this is my first build.

you cant buy a pressure plate unless you know what the pressure is.
