Topic: advice on 8BA engine clutch


pauloma    -- 03-18-2024 @ 11:41 AM
  My friend and i are attempting to install a 1950 8BA engine in his 1948 Mercury with the original transmission. What must we do about the clutch plate and pressure plate? The 8BA engine has a flywheel mounted on it already and we have the bell housing and starter plate.

  Follow this link and some of the links internal to the discussion for many tips on how to do this. An early clutch and pressure plate are the best option.
