    Are they expensive in the USA then the duel clutchs?

    Mine is a duel one and i changed it last year cost £850 and the fact that i could do it myself made it cheaper than the one in my works van:)

    Mine is a dual disk and I had the disks resurfaced, and the flywheel/pressure plate resurfaced. Total cost $250.00.

    BTW I do not find the clutch too hard in traffic, then again, I try to avoid traffic.

    Ferrari's announcement for the use of a single disc clutch as a production improvement came in October 1991.

    Therefore it is almost definite that your June 1990 build has the dual disc.

    The information I give you is backed up by a hard copy of the announcement.

    i thought the dual disc was an improvement. But I figured that no matter what, I have the difficult one because I'm always that lucky. Thanks for the responses, the useful ones that is;).

    I hoped one could see after removing the inspection cover.

    I have to pitch in with what Chris above says...

    Mine rolled out of the factory in July 1990, so a month after yours, and I have a dual clutch... or at least that is what I was told. Clutch was completely replaced before my purchase, so I just haven't gone there in my time (yet). If yours is from June 1990, and especially if some of the 1991 models are dual clutch... I would put my money on yours being a dual clutch model as well. Just don't abuse it, and it can't be quite as bad as the graphics above depict... hold on... I DO kinda look like that dude in the picture. OMG! ><

    Can I blame Daniel anyway?
