Default stock single mass flywheel? non-ac car?

I will be swapping my tranny out for a good used one very soon. The clutch is engaging a bit high so I figure I'll replace the clutch also. I am well aware of the UUC/M5 setup but dont really want to drop $1000. Is there a Single mass STOCK flywheel available for these cars. Apparently the e36's without air conditioning use a single mass flywheel and a sprung clutch disc. Anybody know if this is correct and if its retrofitable. It may possibly be the flywheel used in e30 318's. I may just replace with a factory clutch on my used DM flywheel. Anybody got any info on all this?

for e30 318is with m42 engine, single mass flywheel up to 3/1990.

think it would fit with the sprung hub clutch set from that year?

Yes, that is what I'm running. It's about 7 lbs lighter than stock and only costs $125 from a dealer. Good luck finding one. When I got mine, there were only 2 in the world, according to BMW. I used the stock 318ti clutch with this flywheel, no problems yet.

any problems with chatter using a non single mass flywheel and an unsprung hub clutch disc??

dealer has them available for $317. I think a used one would be quite nice!

I got mine new for $125 from the dealer. Yes, it chatters, but most of them do. I guess thats the price you pay for fast revs!
