The diaphragm type was easier to hold the clutch in like at a stop sign/light.
The holding ability was acceptable.

The B&B type generally needed a he-man leg to hold the clutch in if it was a HD type.
The holding ability was greatly enhanced.
(no slipping when running, good for racing)



The other not sure about seemed to be a Ford thing.

OK glad to know what I have.

I will have to say the pressure it took to depress the clutch was hard and at 58 I will most likely appreciate the lighter pressure.

The kit came with the a brass insert for the crankshaft side and the original one has a ball bearing setup, the 65 motor already has an insert but it is not brass.

Do I have to remove the non-brass insert to use the brass one or maybe the ball bearing style?

If I have to remove it what would be the best way?
