Thanks for the additional info.

I'm not keen on the possibility of a touchy clutch, and I understand multidisc clutches can be noisy with all of those parts rattling around.

Also, rotational inertia is a good thing as far as drivability, as it lowers the driveline torsional resonance frequency*.

But back to the original question, do you know the diameter of the M3W flywheel and/or clutch disc?

I figure if I use at least as big a single-plate clutch I should be fine, as the M8 has about 10% less displacement than the X-Wedge, and for the most part I'm easy on clutches.
