[Rovernet] 2000TC Clutch burned out

[Vern Inkspot]

Hi Bob

You’ll have the late pressure plate & disk on that car.

Minimum thickness on the flywheel is .927”, but that should have no effect on the pressure plate clearance. There is no step on the flywheel, and while there are different flywheel part numbers, I think the difference is just timing markings.

Yours
Vern
