Using a TPS from Volvo 960/850 Bosch 0 280 122 001 :
Will be using VAG COPs:
I am using a solid flywheel from a B23 that is lighten a little bit. Unfortunately there is no trigger on that. So we have taken that off a B230ET automatic "flywheel" below:
Before welding, used only fingers to center it :-)
Welded and done:
Looks like this clutch surface need som attention:
Painted the welds and trigger plate as well:
Just after turning:
The triggerholes now came about 12mm offset from original ones. So we needed to make a spacer for that. will be laser cut:

Removed all but one trigger-teeth, the one left is now triggin' somewhere between cylinder 4 and 2s TDC (the firing order is 1-3-4-2):
Also cut the axle since we dont need it when not using the distributor:
