[Healeys] Clutch Alignment Tools - AH100

[John Harper]

You are correct in what you say. 'Clutchtools' do not advertise the 
correct tool for a BN1.

As a matter of interest I looked up the official BMC Service Tool 
Catalogue and I believe that there are errors in this.

Service Tool 18G79; that I believe is correct for a BN2 does not list 
the 100 at all. The only Healey listed is 100 six

Service Tool 18G80 lists A70, A90 Healey 100 and Healey 100 Six.

I maintain that 18G79 should include the 100 BN2 and 18G80 should not 
include Healey 100 Six but only list the Healey 100 suitable for a BN1.

Anyway the dimensions of my tools that are based on the above BMC tools 
have a pilot length of 2.00" and further length for the plate of 2.00". 
Mine are turned down from 8" lengths  of 1" diameter steel.
