Default Re: Replacing clutch in 1950 Shoebox Convertible

For what it's worth. When I adapted the T5 behind my 52, I used Falcon pressure plate and disc. Same diameter (9" or 9 1/2"?) as the original except I had to get the flywheel redrilled to take the falcon pressure plate. The clutch is a lot lighter than the original now and if I'm not wrong, I'm pretty sure the spline is the same as the original Customline. Not that it matters because as I say, I used the Falcon pressure plate and disc.

Actually, it was pretty easy to adapt the T5 behnd the 8BA. If anybody wants the the detail on how to do it, I can put it up on the forum. But I suspect that's already happened.

Cheers
Mick
