We can supply this pressure plate as the FG flywheel has a lower offset flywheel. Unfortunately this doesnt quite fit in BA/BF's.

PAH Donating Members 361 Member For: 16y 3m 23d Gender: Male Posted 02/06/12 01:08 AM Share Posted 02/06/12 01:08 AM Hi Guys,I regret buying the XR6T Manual because it has more transmission clunks than an auto. If I'd known that at the time, I would have gone for the nice ZF auto as used in Euro gems like BMW's. The Muttering Rotters say that the auto XR6T is faster. Does it have any down-sides? I had my manual gearbox and diff shimmed by Mal Wood to reduce the driveline shunt. I understand that the torque convertor in the auto masks the shunt problem. True?PAH Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/79254-fg-xr6-turbo-clutches/#findComment-1247703 Share on other sites More sharing options...
