I bought my flywheel bolts from QED, weren't that expensive. Clutch assemblies from these people http://www.clutch-specialists.co.uk/

I bought a T16 kit, used a low mileage 180 pressure plate as that kit was cheaper for a T16, same clutch plate and bearing.

If its just the LSD he's after (the box will have different ratios I think) then it might be cheaper and easier to remove the LSD from the box and post it that way? (the LSD is much smaller than the whole box!)

Just a suggestion

It will as the BRM is only a 143bhp VVC, also I think the casing is different.

Yes, most deffo

You just need to take it out of the BRM box and replace the standard diff in your 180 box with this one...

While you have the box off I recommend cleaning and greasing the clutch actuating arm though!
