Hot, humid air is less dense than cooler, drier air. This can allow a golf ball to fly through the air with greater ease, as there won't be as much resistance on the ball.

Re: Clutches
The 73 tranny is a SSC (Single Side cover) and uses the late model throwout bearing and has the larger cross shaft. you you can not switch to the early style TO.
So you have to remove the centering ring for it to work.

Re: Clutches
I had a pressure plate that had a center ring that was not removable. I called Denny at Savannah clutch and the one that he had in stock had a centering ring and it was not removable either. Hedrock sent me a ring to get me going. I had a new pressure plate that needed the centering ring.Glenn wrote:

Re: Clutches
the only thing im worried about is my pressure plate is a three finger instead of a multi finger but the center ring came out with no problem and lined right up hoping that the three finger doesnt mess up the TO bearing. have a buddy in cleveland Tn and he said that the 6V pressure plate has two different ones and didnt know if the one i have will work. so im thinking the worst thing to happen is it will mess up my TO bearing and and i will have to order a new clutch and pressure plate and lose bout a hour of work

Re: Clutches
The 3 finger style pressure plate shouldn't be a problem. As in messing up the throw out bearing.
