TOB question

So my old motor blew, and I bought a longblock. Re-using my trans and clutch of course.

The TOB looked a little abused. Kinda worn out. I want to replace it, but the clutch is still good. No reason to replace the clutch.

My question is, could I replace it with an OEM TOB? It is an aftermarket clutch, and have no clue on the TOB.

And since I'm in the subject, does anybody know what kind of bolts is the clutch tighten down with? Or does every clutch use different bolts?

Thanks guys.

You can go ahead and replace it with an OEM TOB, infact it will be a good idea.

And when you asking about the bolts that hold down the clutch if they're then ones Im thinking they are I thing they're just 14mm bolts. Its been a while since Ive done a clutch job on an Evo.

If you need an OEM TB, PM me and I can get you a quote.

I stripped one, so I'm hoping lowes or auto part shop has em. Will def check the dealer first to see if they are OEM bolts. I say this because I'm not sure if aftermarket clutches use different bolts.

Thanks Vivid. You got a PM.

Personally Id go with OEM. I think the dealership will only charge you a few bucks for it. I buy individual bolts from them all the time.
