    6 Puck Clutch and Stock Pressure plate

    Will this cause any problems? During my M50 swap I put in a Clutch Net 6 puck clutch but I retained the stock pressure plate. I still don't have the engine bolted to the car so there's still time to replace

    I'd go with an HD pressure plate, but that's just me.

    Why upgrade to a sweet clutch if your PP can't hold onto it?

      Due to the reduction in surface area a six puck clutch disk needs a pressure plate with higher clamping force. What you've done will probably work, but I suspect the clutch disk may not last long.
      The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
