It's a couple months out...but I can have them hurry it up.

Craig, yes the DE and HR use different clutches and flywheels, so unfortunately, neither the clutch nor the flywheel are interchangeable.

timing marks on the flywheels are different.... DE flywheel wont work in HR

i have a JWT DE clutch in my HR... using the stock flywheel.

JWT said it would work fine, then the mechanic went to install the clutch, and he said it looked like one of the bearings were too small.

Mechanic called JWT, and JWT test fit the DE clutch in the HR and confirmed it would work.

this clutch job was done in april or may of 07(before HR clutch kits were out) i dont remember the exact dates. I have around 1000 miles on this clutch now, with no problems.

Really? I will have to call JWT, becuase they show two different PN's for the DE and HR clutches. Believe me, nobody is an expert on the HR just yet...so we can all use a little help!!

That would be great if the clutches were interchangeable, bypass the markups.

UPDATE: While I was at SEMA I checked for clutches for the HR. The only option to date is the JWT. I don't think it is strong enough so I am goin to wait for something else to come out.

You really need to give the man a call, he's always cramming himself with stuff to do and doesn't read these forums all that much I believe.
