Re: M clutch

["spook01" <spook01@comcast.net>]

Hello all,
I had a nice reply from Mr. D in the UK offering a lightened flywheel and J2 
clutch.  It STILL seems that someone must have used a modern clutch for the 
M through P cars........
I have several extra flywheels I suppose could be experimented with.......or 
upon...
Best,
Ray
