Some help please
Car as received:
1960 modified frogeye sprite - modified in period - was a right old sate - has gone through a nut and bolt rebuild apart from the gearbox which has now broken some teeth and also jumping out of reverse
Drive train as received and rebuilt
948 + 60" engine
948 crankshaft
948 flywheel - whole bottom end balanced
6.5" clutch
9 spring pressure plate - ? aftermarket
1275 throwout bearing
1098 clutch fork but appears bent and ? cut or snapped and welded back together (see photos)
3 1/2" slave cylinder pushrod
7/8" dual bore master cylinder
22g118 gearbox frontplate
ribbed 1098 gearbox with gearset that is identical to 1098 morris gears + bronze bushed and baulk rings (all marked HS14 rather than normal part numbers..)
I am concerned the clutch geometry is a mess and whilst have it apart want to sort it out
Could you help me fill in the ??? with what should be in the system:
948 + 60" engine
948 crankshaft
948 flywheel - whole bottom end balanced
6.5" clutch
???? what pressure plate ? standard 948
????throwout bearing
??? clutch fork
?? slave cylinder pushgrod
7/8" dual bore mastercylinder
22g118 gearbox frontplate
1098 minor gearbox - have a spare that am rebuilding
I can't get my head around all the different changes and basically what is needed to mate a 948 engine to a 1098 box.
any help really appreciated.
(bizarrely have another 1098 goal seal spare box that has a 2a3087 i.e. 948 front plate on it with the correct mountings! incase this is what I should be using with this system)
Pictures attached: bent/modified 1098 clutch fork shown next to a standard 948 clutch fork and bearing.
