Re: pressure plate

Why not just go to the local Napa and be done with it?

For hard parts on any of my projects I always check local sources before buying from the specialty sources.

Re: pressure plate

10-3/4 is the heavy duty clutch. If you have a local part store that knows what to do, take your clutch in and let them match it. If not www.bowtiebits.com shows the big clutch in his catalog.

Someone put an 11" GMC clutch in mine. Thankfully I have a good part store.
