You got me beat, Tony; I did an engine change on our only car (in the
driveway) one weekend, then found the clutch disc on the 'new' junkyard Ford
engine was a different size and it wouldn't fit the old 3-speed splines either.
So on Monday I bought a new disc on my way home from work (took the
motorcycle), installed it before supper, and Judy went into labor later that
night... I told her all it takes is careful planning.... I think she relaxed when I
told her it ran. FWIW- J DeRyke
