I bought a Borg and Beck from The Proper MG for $95, They have a performance version for about $200. Rumor is that there is a vendor on this list who sells it cheaper, but I don't know what his price

I have been told that the performance cluch does not necessarily last any longer than the standard clutch, and I was advised against it. FWIW, etc. Andrew B. Lundgren had this to say: -- Max Heim '66

Hi I have a 1978 MGB and I need to replace the clutch. I have read that you have to remove the motor to do this. Is the reason because there is not enough room to remove the trans because of the fire

Tony, I would recommend that you replace the throwout bearing when you replace the clutch and pressure plate. The bearing is only a piece of carbon and does wear as quickly as the clutch. As to turni
