Re: Clutch Linkage Question

["Ben Jr. Morgan" <polara_hotrods@xxxxxxx>]

Borge and beck style systems are what the car is meant for anyway. A lot of times you can get the borge and beck pressure plates rebuilt for very little cost. For instance I sent in a hays plate to be rebuilt and it only cost $50. It was a $400 kit to begin with. I don't know of any diaphragm plates that can be rebuilt.

  Mopar used the 3 finfer style pressure plate. Maybe
  that explains the center over spring. 
  I know what you mean about that spring dave. It does
  bite if not handled carefully.
