That's not a nice surprise to discover :smt118
I bought Hisnibbs old motor at a fair price for the donor parts.

But.......

To top it off Andy......

I binned the old flywheel and forgot to remove the sprag clutch. :smt090
Tolerance will be our undoing.

Bugger, bad luck.
From reading various clutch issues on AF1 roughing up the steels is a temporary fix.
I got fed up with constant clutch slip, EBC frictions don't fit early Falcs so I bought a Barnett kit, takes a thrashing very well indeed :smt003
No issues with it but was already using an MPL clutch slave cylinder so no heavy action probs, Barnett kit is a way bit cheaper than the full OE kit
