Happy to see this taken down if it looks out of place. This is whats been filling my spare time for the last two and half years. Didnt want to get involved but got dragged in by my mate who lives at the end of my road who is a retired joiner. The car sat for twenty years in a car park and was eventu...

As above plus; there is a flat cut off the side of the plate which holds the 3 bearings. Need to make sure it is indexed with the peg inside the housing. If it isnt the datum start point is half way through the adjustment range and you'll spend weeks fiddling inside the clutch. From memory the adjus...

Thanks JW for putting this back up, its a thankless task to try to re-create it with the benefit of hindsight but one which will be appreciated by many. Dig deep and for complete authenticity i'll try to remember some of my more characteristically innane comments as the FI stuff comes through. 10 ou...
