I am faced with my first clutch job on an 1972 MGB I bought a few months ago. Although I got it to drive a short distance, the piston pushes through the slave cylinder. Where should I go (website) o

Stay away from the "kit" that Moss sells. I used it in mine and a year later I was changing it again. Bob Mason of the B register said it was the 5th time he'd heard of it that summer. Instead get th

Jay is correct on this. You are looking at a fairly involved job in which you will need to separate the engine and transmission. This will most likely involve removing the engine/transmission as a un

I got the kit from Moss in July 2001, and it's still great. Probably 10-12K miles.

Putting official hat on for a moment. Moss sells two clutch kits. One supplied by Delphi Lockheed, that used to be Borg & Beck, the other from Quinten Hazell. Comparing the two of them side by side,

It's Borg and Beck and getting the kit is ok but there are two kits. Borg and Beck and Quinton Hazel. People have had problems with both but seemingly more often the Quinton Hazel kits are worse. Cha

I probably have 50K on mine, at this point. No problems. Moss used to also sell a "heavy duty" clutch kit, that did have a rep for problems, I believe... Kelvin? BTW, pulling the engine & tranny in t

I don't remember any problems with the heavy duty clutch components. The cover and disc are still carried and are being used by a number of MGVR members. I don't recommend the cover for street use a

Oh, OK, maybe I'm thinking of the TO bearing. I was just recalling I was warned off the heavy duty unit when I replaced my clutch, probably for the reasons you mention. -- Max Heim '66 MGB GHN3L76149

Sorry, but I don't know of any good web resources for this information other than to search the archives. It is a pretty straight forward job when approached step by step. Note: Probably everything
