OK, this might be spam (the horror), but also might help someone out. We've designed/machined this alternative for Countach and Diablo:

Lamborghini Countach heavy-duty clutch up-grade Eliminate the Countach "Achilles heel", namely the weak “pull-type” clutch with our heavy-duty clutch package.

This installation uses a superior, “push-type” Sachs pressure plate (Made in Germany) with similar clamping force (no increased pedal effort) and a 6 puck segmented, dual friction disk (Kevlar lining on the back side to provide smooth, heat resistant slip during engagement and sintered ceramic lining on the front side for outstanding grip). A Quartermaster annular hydraulic clutch release mechanism eliminates the old mechanical linkage for smoother operation, is self adjusting and eliminates the troublesome OEM hydraulic slave cylinder. The clutch release adaptor mount/piston is custom machined from 6061 T6 aluminum billet and finished with class III hard anodizing for long life. The clutch master cylinder is replaced with a matched size Tilton aluminum racing unit. The OEM fly-wheel is re-surfaced (or replaced as needed for an extra charge). The clutch release bearing is replaced with a proven, matched, push-type unit. The pilot bearing is replaced, as are the rear main bearing seal and the transmission input shaft seal. Hydraulic hoses are 3AN stainless braided.

Other than softening some sharp edges to help prevent hydraulic hose damage, no original Lamborghini parts are modified in any way.

Always nice to hear of some updates for the cars....
Is this the set-up that was installed on Rays white Countach?
How many cars have you guys done with it?
Any feedback from the owners yet?

We've done 3 of these special clutches. We installed one in a 97 Diablo over a year ago and it's still going strong. I talked to the car's owner just recently.

Yes, we installed the third special clutch in Ray's white Countach.

The second special clutch also went into a Countach (1988). The second clutch was a bit grabby. I had no trouble with it but the car's owner had a little problem modulating it. Ray's clutch was toned down just a tad and takes up very smoothly but it's still good for 650 HP. Pedal effort is about the same as stock but the required stroke is much shorter since the linkage and slave cylinder have been eliminated and also due to the dual friction disk.

Hi
How much for this and can it be purchased in kit form as I am in Australia?
