They say any DOT 3 or 4 fluid will work, but it ain’t so. Some brake fluids will attack the rubber in the Quartermaster slave cylinder (see photo). I have compared the Quartermaster fluid with regular DOT 3 and 4 fluid and can tell you it is a BUNCH slipperier. The slave works much more smoothly.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><img width=2016 height=1512 style='width:21.0in;height:15.75in' id="_x0000_i1025" src="cid:image001.jpg@01D608FB.2F130F00"><br>BTW this is a Quartermaster 721 series concentric slave and throwout bearing.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Phil Gott<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Sent from my iPhone<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>On Apr 1, 2020, at 9:42 PM, Scott Janzen via Fot <fot@autox.team.net> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></blockquote></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><div><p class=MsoNormal>I can tell you the size for the GT6 bits, if they are the same. <o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Studs are 7/16” x3-1/2” overall length, 20TPI. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>My ARP box is marked 206-5404 Triumph TR7 main stud kit.<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>On Apr 1, 2020, at 7:58 PM, Brad Eells via Fot <<a href="mailto:fot@autox.team.net">fot@autox.team.net</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Hello Amici,<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>Thinking aloud here as I have time on my hands.

Main cap fasteners - ARP does not make a main stud kit for the Spifire 1300 and does not list their studs by size either. If you have an ARP stud and nut set up, how did you order it?

Clutches - the vintage set up in my engines are a lightened factory flywheel, coming up just under 13 lbs with ring gear and a Borg & Beck clutch disc and plate. I've run 3 race weekends with the clutch that has been in the car for 43 years, so far without issue.
