I read through the several FAQ articles about the conversions, but I'm still not sure where my part numbers fall into these lists. Before I decided to swap my 4 for a 5spd, I had already bought a sachs kit K70009-01 kit for my 73. I now have the 265/6 and the proper bellhousing/slave cylinder/fork, but I'm just not 100% certain if I'm able to use my old, resurfaced flywheel and clutch kit with the 265? From what I've gathered, I believe I can use the clutch/pressure plate and flywheel together, but need a shorter throwout bearing (21511204225 part number?). Of course that one is 3-4x the cost...lol. Here's a pic of my throwout bearing on the new fork... Is it that the new fork makes the combo of the throwout bearing/fork too thick to fully release the clutch?
Sorry for rehashing this topic again, the more I researched, the more unsure I got..

that part number is the one I have in the pic I posted, I believe. I’ll have to confirm, but looks like it.
Thanks for the help with this. I think I read too many posts about it and now I’m confused..lol.
