This thread has gone on for a day or two and I have followed with interest. Several people have said that a rpm drop is normal when the clutch is depressed. Maybe so but I have some doubts. I noticed

I With carbon T/O I have always gotten 75K (or more) on a clutch. Many years ago I put in a Borg and Beck roller in. At about 35K it started to make a small noise when the clutch pedal was depressed.

I think the real reason has got lost in all this, erm, discussion about roller (spit!) bearings. The cause of the idle drop is probably worn crankshaft thrust washers. If you idle the engine and have

Perhaps, just perhaps, those "other stick shift cars/truck" were _designed_ to have roller or ball bearings in them. I'm guessing that the choice of bearings wasn't an afterthought. Perhaps some othe

With all the other well thought out and "purpose designed" items in the MG, I can't understand your skepticism. I think MG had a big box of the graphite bearings in the warehouse (they got 'em cheap)

Charley & Peggy Robinson had this to say: I wouldn't say it's a problem with the bearings. It's a problem with the tolerances in the MGB clutch assembly, not being designed with a ball bearing TO in

I guess I would call that a performance upgrade, as differentiated from a mere substitution of a more current technology for an older one that was doing the job perfectly well (OK, reasonably well).
