<p>Hi Joe,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yes, the MGB pressure plates have a graphite thrust bearing,</p>
<p>and can be isntalled on Triumph flywheels for a bit more</p>
<p>bite. I had tried that before I went to the Tilton clutch</p>
<p>on my car.</p>

thrust bearing that one guy says is consistent with Morgan.<br><br> Another
suggestion was that it was from an MGB.<br><br> Thanks,<br><br> Joe
