Afternoon oh wise ones This pretty little clutch came to me with a box full of crossflow ford bits Ive heard of racingclutcjes, and an almost identical plate is for sale currently on evilbay, but the cover and ‘gears’ are nothing like I’ve seen before Anyone recognise this, is it worth anything etc etc I’m guessing that as a paddle style clutch it’s not a road friendly item! Anyone got any idea? Tia     |

Hi, Yes a twin or multi plate clutch, they are not particularly forgiving because they're either on or off so don't have much feel.

build the clutch up (just put it together loose) and when new the driven plate should be flush with the outer ring/casing. The step on the flywheel is the pre-load when bolted together. A standard flywheel will not work with this clutch. I recall it should be around a 100 thou (2.5mm) step but you will need to verify. with slight wear it wont quite be flush and can be measured with straight edge and feeler gauge. that looks like a single disc type as the outer casing looks quite shallow.
The driven plate you have is cerametalic not paddle (the slits are just for heat expansion). these can be swapped out for an organic disc. the paddle discs with the small individual pads are the worst to use on the road. again with the clutch built up they should all end up flush

Cheers for that, I think it’s going to be moved on to someone who needs it, my cars are just road stuff👍
