Default 1999 V70 T5 Clutch/Flywheel

I'm thinking about looking at a '99 V70 T5 Manual to go alongside my '97 V70 2.5 TDi, however the car has been laid up for 18 months, and apparently needs a new clutch.
As they're dual mass flywheels, (and it's on over 200k) I've been looking into what it'll cost me in parts to replace the clutch and flywheel, but i can't find a flywheel for under ~£400, and I can't find an 850r flywheel to do a SMF conversion.
Does anyone have the actual part numbers that for the flywheel?
Or is it just a case of bite the bullet and close my eyes as I pay the bill?

Cheers

You don't need an 850R flywheel. Any single mass flywheel is fine for the conversion. For the clutch pack itself, try FRF Volvo in Swansea, quoting code C3. Should get a lot cheaper than £400.

Ah ideal, I'll have a look around and see what I can find.
Does the clutch need to be a SMF specific one, or can I use a normal T5 clutch?

Most common purchase clutch wise is an 850R clutch (FRF have very good prices on these). Better feel and then covers you if you ever decide to seek a smidge more power. Dont forget to change slave cylinder whilst at it.

Most common flywheel choice is from a 2.0 N/A, should be able to get used ones from breakers for around £80.

After viewing it the other day, I'm fairly certain that it's the slave cylinder that's gone, but as it's a box-off job i'll change the clutch over anyway.

Thanks for your help
