Not sure if this post should come under 'Stock Alpine' or not?
I'm hoping to fit the flywheel and 8 1/2" clutch from a Holbay engined Sunbeam Rapier to my SIV Alpine project. Does anyone knows if this mod will work?
I do know that I will need to obtain a 10 spline 8 1/2" clutch plate to fit the Alpine transmission input shaft. I think that the early Commer vans and campers may have used an 8 1/2" 10 spline clutch plate but I'm not sure? I'm also wondering if the larger throw out bearing fitted to the Holbay cars will fit the standard SIV alpine clutch fork and if it does.. will the clutch operate as it should?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Stuart
