Not any clutch and pressure plate will work with any flywheel. There are different style flywheels and clutch kits. If you know what style flywheel you have, you can call Valair and they can help you. I think they sell clutch kits for different style flywheels. The release and pilot bearing will come with the clutch kit.

I would use a tob and pilot bearing from Valeo then, especially the pilot bearing.
