Plus I have a couple of losi's and if it is the same clutch the only thing I noticed was the screws that hold the springs in place tend to seize in place making the heads strip out trying to get them out over time. I think it's due to the fact of the fly wheel heating up then cooling off after so many times. The other plus side to the M2C clutch is, it's alot easier and faster to change shoes and springs out on.
No they are completely different and not 1 part is interchangable. I still own a losi 8 and I've just started using the assendancy clutch on my 808. as someone else has said already there are no screws as the flywheel is two peice and the top section is used to set the springs and is held on by the clutch nut.
the only draw back to the system... you have to remove the whole assembly to change the shoes or springs, but in saying that you can have a complete assembly ready to go and then all it takes is to undo the clutch nut.
the trick I used to do on my losi to get past the screws locking is to use a small amount of Blue locktite and only just tighten them till the head touches the flywheel... never had a screw lock using this method
