Doug M.---Many in our crowd are favoring the GUNST as the throwout
bearing of choice. Not available (yet) from any of the State side
suppliers, one of our list members has graciously offered his time do a
large order of these bearings, which come from Germany. If Don Malling
is looking in, perhaps he can direct you.

The Gunst is a quality bearing, capable of spinning full time under a
preload. It comes mounted on a bronze carrier sleeve, and of the proper
ID for the front cover. Directions included.

Second choice would be the KOYO bearing, available from TRF. It is also
a quality bearing, but much larger than the Gunst. The Gunst happens to
be the same size as the original RHP.

For more information on the above, visit

website. Go to "technical" and then down to "reliable clutch".
