Carrier Clutch
It's the 11 inch one ( Ford Truck/Bus Type ) with about 10 splines . Just check your flywheel has been drilled to take the 11 inch and not the 10 inch , also check the threads are good as these often get streeched through over tightening, and remember there are also special bolts used with a stepped shoulder if you want it to be correct.

The threads in the flywheel start about a quarter inch down in the hole. The bolts have a shoulder about a quarter inch from the head and the straight parts act like dowel pins to center the pressure plate.
Most clutch bolts are made the same way.

May I ask you guys, for the measuring of the thickness of the new/rebuilded 11 inch clutch disc?
Many thanks!

Someone recently mentioned in the soft skin forum that a Holden 1 ton driven plate works fine, is a little smaller in diameter, but costs a lot less (in Oz anyhow)

Just a small update:
Have found somewhere on the net that flathead's new 10 inch plate should be 3/8inch thick, which equals cca 9.5mm, new linings should be cca 3.5mm thick. Checked it on my 11´ clutch and I got 10mm overall thickness with cca 3.4-3.5mm lining thickness. It seems to be specs as new, but the rivet's heads are only 0.7mm bellow the lining surface at the minimum point - which is not too much I guess. The question is if the 11´ plate doesn't use thicker linings (4mm) than 10´ plate? Any comments?
