Hi Jim, if your using a bedford flywheel you will need a bedford pressure plate.

Hi Jim I take it your using a ford box so the bedford release bearing probably wont fit in that case you will have to use the ford one but make sure the diameter is the same.I am saying this because someone had put a slightly smaller diameter one on my camper and it broke some fingers on the pressure plate.

Hi dave.Thanks for the reply.I understand what you mean about the thrust bearing.Would a ford fiy wheel need much altering to fit a sloper engine?It's just a thought,might make life easier.Cheers+Beers Jim.

Hi Jim, I dont think so , depends on cranshaft flange fitting, I personally would use the bedford pressure plate and the ford spinner plate making sure the ford release bearing is the same diameteras the bedfod.
