[Healeys] Clutch/Release/Pressure Plate Questions

[Tracy Drummond]

The bolt patterns are the same.  The dowel pins are in different locations.
They are interchangeable IF you get new dowel pin holes drilled at a machine
shop.  I recommend the BJ8 pressure plate as it is smoother and more
positive clutch engagement action..

Warm Regards,

I was pretty sure the bolt pattern was different, but do not have two
different flywheels to double check this.
Can someone provide the definitive answer?

Hi
Alan is right, of course everything can be modified. What I meant was that
the unmodified BJ8 clutch fits only to the unmodified BJ8 flywheel.
And I may remember incorrectly, the dowel pattern may possibly be the only
difference.
