[Shotimes] 1989-1990 clutches of olden days

[Ron Porter]

Yes, I misspoke (mistyped?). It's the pp that's now cast, not the flywheel.

    You mean the pressure plate?

The flywheels are pretty much the same.  Just machined different for the
pressure plate bolts/dowels.

What was ever Ford thinking putting that thing in there?  What a little
piece of junk.  Looked like it was out of a honda civic or something.  Been
a few yrs since I've seen any, last one was on a 89 i did a clutch for.

IIRC, I believe you can still buy a 89-90 9.25" from Centerforce.
