Interesting thread, but I don't quite follow the specs. The clutch on my 69
has always been very stiff, which after 20+ years I really like. The clutch on
my brother's 73 is almost (for lack of a better description) Toyota'ish. I
have difficulty getting my left leg to release his clutch because I'm so used
to mine.

So, is a 69 'suppose' to have such a stiff clutch because of this difference
in the bore? I've had both ends replaced but I have no idea what size I have.
If the .75's are rare, I'd be surprised if that's what I actually still have.
