However, Smitty's instructions show a diaphram type clutch pressure plate.
Is that what one should use? What part numnber? Will it fit a BN1?

David--
I did the conversion while at Smitty's shop (emergency basis), reused the BN1
clutch with no problems and drove the car back to Maryland. I later put in a
BJ8 diaphragm clutch which is much smoother and lighter but I am sure it was
not a requirement.
Have you talked with Pete Delaney, the fellow who took over Smitty's
operation? He is either in Rock Hill, SC or Charlotte, NC and I am sure he
could be
of assistance. Also Alan Hendrix of HWW has done a number of the conversions
and is always willing to help.
