Subject: [Healeys] clutch wanted=20
Hi all, A few years ago I had a slipping clutch on my BT7 and embarked on c=
hanging the pressure plate, clutch disc and throw bearing. The replacement =
parts were from Borg & Beck, the EOM. However, I had some serious problems =
with the clutch disc as they had just changed the design of the cages that =
retain the springs. I had the g=E2=80=99box out and in again three times an=
d was getting very quick at it, although that is not a skill I ever wanted =
to excel in. In the end, I cleaned up the pressure plate and de-greased the=
old clutch disc plate, and put the old stuff back in and it has been funct=
ioning fine, albeit I know the pressure plate is still scored somewhat. I a=
m rebuilding the motor this winter and as I will dynamically balance the ro=
tating parts, I want to put a new pressure plate in so they can be balanced=
together. Although the problem with the clutch a few years ago was not wit=
h the pressure plate, and I suspect B&B have fixed the problem with the clu=
tch disc as this seemed to be a unique problem, I still have a preference f=
or using an NOS pressure plate, or at least an older, but unused replacemen=
t B&B pressure plate. I have since secured an NOS clutch disc (thanks Mike =
Salter!).=20
My question to the group is whether anyone has an older but new (i.e., unus=
ed) 10=E2=80=9D B&B pressure plate that is surplus to needs and that they w=
ould part with?=20
Many thanks for any help provided.=20
