SOS!! Guess what kind of clutch it is!!

my clutch is officially completely worned down to the metal, so it was time for me to replace it, but the problem is I don't know what kind of clutch i got since it's a swapped T2 engine, and the guy that sold me the engine doesn't know either.., I don't have any pictures yet but I will put it up as soon as I manage to borrow a digital camera... anyways here's the rundown
3 puck springless clutch disc, the pressure plate has 2 layers of teeth in the middle instead of just one layer, and it's bolted on to the aftermarket flywheel(you could kinda tell as well) with 10 inverted hex bolts instead of 6 10/12(?) mm bolts, and instead of just mostly smooth hub surface on the sides of the pressure plate, it has arms as well, I tried to replace it with a stock clutch disc but it won't fit, pressure plate won't sit on the flywheel to the point where the bolts won't even catch thread, so what could it be????? and where can I source out this clutch disc ASAP???

any help/guesses would be greatly appreciatated guys since it's my daily car, and I need it ASAP

thanks,
Eddy

Sounds like a twin disc clutch.

Easiest way is to find a stock flywheel and get stock disc in.

If you want the exactly same one, you can overnight some parts from Japan.
