Well, that's the funny thing. The moss catalog does show a 948-1275 section and another for the 1500. But under the 1500 section, they show 2 gearboxes... one '71-74 and another '75 and on. I see what you mean by the differences. I don't know why moss would list a '71-74 gearbox under the 1500 section, if the '74s were 1275's? They didn't make a 1500 in '74 did they?

Strange... Here's the link to clutch parts for pre-1500 cars.

I can scan the page out of the Haynes book if it will help, since it shows basically the same diagram. From Moss' main page I just looked under AH Sprite/MG Midget, and looked under clutch, transmission, and drive train. There are two links, one to clutch 1500, and one for clutch 948-1275.

John, not for a Midget. They were still all in Spits in '74.

You're looking under Triumph Spitfire; maybe they did things differently on the Spit. The info for AH Sprite and MG Midget is correct.

John, here's the Moss page on the 1500 Midget clutch. Your link to the A series was correct.

As you can see there is a significant difference.
