 Hi List:

While there have been many discussions regarding the TR6 clutch I dont recall 
this particular question being asked.? According to TRF web site:

"Joachim does not recommend using his throw-out bearing with Borg & Beck 
pressure plates or with any pressure plates having bent or "crooked" end on? 
spring fingers..."

Of course, I purchased a clutch set-up before being aware of this fact and, you 
guessed it, it is a Borg & Beck, and it has bent fingers.? What has been the 
experience of the list regarding this set-up?? Has anyone installed a Gunst 
bearing with a Borg & Beck pressure plate or another brand with bent fingers.? 
What was the result?? TRF suggest that LUK clutches are best with the Gunst 
Bearing.? For those running with the Gunst bearing what do you have installed 
for other components besides B&B and how is your set-up performing?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Aaron
