Re: South African Clutch Bracket

mine fitted fine james , if you see it is just level with the seam of the bulkhead and does not foul the horizontal piece of the scuttle when the pedal is pressed fully, if it is mounted to high then i see the rod where the splitpin goes in will foul .

Re: The Perfect Storm?

in the 90's we used to take an old distributor , take the gear off and then fit back and attach a drilling machine to it , you can build the oil pressure up for a good few minutes before even cranking the motor making sure oil is everywhere and pressure is good. damn giving my age away - lol
