Subject: Re: 2ltr clutch
I think Peter has a point.

I have the original configuration on my 2 Litre, but with a modern lining. If I am tired and maneuvering the car up a slope so my clutch gets hot, I now get a vile smell of rotten fish which I think is the lining getting very hot. However when it has cooled down it is fine and much better than with the old lining which simply would not grip at all when hot.

Can I applaud Peter's view about not fitting the modern type clutch replacement? This goes along with putting in an Alvis synchromesh box!

There is a lot of fun to be had adjusting the clutch stop. Late and hard is what is required.
