Use any good 90 wt Gear oil. I use Valvoline in my 3 rail OD tranny and it works fine. My guess is that it s for lubricating the rubber seals of the kit when installing them. I doubt you will have an

Undoubtedly, you ordered a clutch for the Mk1 and got the smaller one. When it comes to the MkIV and 1500 clutches, it gets a bit dicier. The reason is while the pressure plate is virtually the same

When you refer to a 3 rail tranny. You are talking about the three rods in the top cover that work the gears from the shifter? my tranny is a 10 spline. THnx Pat 63 Spitfire ( Can always use the sma

Hi Pat, Make sure when ordering engine or clutch parts to tell the supplier your engine or transmission # so they can get you the right parts. 63 clutches are different from 64's, and 67's, and they

So, I have a 71 -72 motor (FK makes it that year per V.B.) Yet I pull off a 10 spline 7 1/4 disk, which matches the Fly wheel and pressure plate. I don't have any pictures of a MK4, was it the same b

Patrick, the MK IV and the 1500 use the same body style. The diffences in the cars being the length of the rear axles, and the engine and trannies used in them (some of the first 1500s still used the
