I'm using the quartermaster twin plate clutch and really like it. Not sure
who Powertrain is. You can use the standard setup, but I really like the
modified SAAB release bearing I installed in Peyote. I cursed it for awhile
until I got it set up right--I should have spent more time and care before I
dropped the engine in.
Be really careful about that aluminum flywheel. I've broken flywheel bolts
way too many times with aluminum wheels. I use a steel one with six ARP
bolts and two tight dowels. I consider that minimum for a racing engine. I
think aluminum flywheels are possible, but would require a lot of careful
engineering and design.

Does anyone have any experience/recommendation re PowerTrain Clutches. I'm
looking at purchasing a 7.25 twin plate for my racing TR6. They are less
costly than the Tilton and appear good quality. Do I need to run a hyraulic
release bearing or will the standard set up be OK. It will go on an
aluminium flywheel Geoff Byrne
