Need to know original thickness of clutch plate

Hello!

Does anybody knows the original thickness of the clutch plate from a valeo clutch (I think it is the original set-up of the Camaro with BW 6 spd.).

Thanks for help.

I assume youre more specifically referring to the friction plate measurement. If you look at your plate you will see there is no good reference edges to get a good measurement.

I just took my old used pressure plate and set it upside down on the floor and placed a straight edge across the friction surface. I then measured the distance from the straight edge to the floor. This measurement was 1.470".

Hope this helps.
