Hey, Bill does this use a 3 puck clutch disc?   I got one with the spares for the car and was wondering what it might be for since it doesnt match whats in the car.

The early TD bell housing is the same as TC with 5/8 clutch shaft except the spigot for the ball bearing is smaller so will not work without modification. 

The Morris 10 bell housing is the same as early TD with 5/8 clutch shaft.. 

The late TD/TF bell housings are the same and differ from the early TD by the clutch shaft is diameter and moved back slightly to accommodate the larger 8 clutch.

Bolt patterns for all the above bell housings are the same front to engine and back to gearbox.

Bob, ok, I wasn't sure. Us the bell housing on the 8 inch clutch wider than the TC?

No Norman, the flywheels are different as are the clutches. My drawing is for an early TD/TC 7-1/4 flywheel/clutch.

Roger, I may be wrong bit I think the flywheels are the same diameter, it's the clutch that's bigger.

hi Guys  - a question for you engine-builder guys: what is the difference in diameter between 7 1/4" and 8" flywheels?  Bob G's drwg of lightening does not show the diameters. The reason is that a TC with a perfectly good TD engine does not look "right" with a small TD starter motor.
