Default Re: V8 clutch problem

This is a followup to Bob Scogins clutch issue. I have a pressure plate similar to the one in question marked do not sell. This unit reverted back a year or so ago when there were issues with the throw out fork length on 40-48 pressure plates and it appears to be an off shore pressure plate. I am not sure if it was brought in by a customer or was a trial product ordered to check fit. In any case if you are purchasing a 9" pressure plate for a pre 49 engine application have the vendor check the span length between the opposing mounting bolts, the measurement should be 7 1/4" if the measurement is less there will be a fit issue with the part.
