Not necessarily so, Bill. The Rivergate kit uses a stock Spridget clutch 
pressure plate and a Nissan throwout bearing. If they go out of business, 
you can get a Nissan disk turned down to fit or get your flywheel re-drilled 
to take the Nissan pressure plate, which is what Paul A's fine kit does from 
the outset. I like the concept of Paul's kit better, too, but I have a 
weakness for SE Tennessee and Bill Perry is good folks. Only problem I have 
had with my clutch has been that my master cylinder went out on me, but I 
can't really blame that on Rivergate ;-)
