I'm usually over on the Mini section (hence 'Cooperman'), but I am building an engine for a Midget and need a bit of tech advice.
The car is an 1118 cc Midget for Historic Rallying with around 85 bhp projected and I'm trying to source a suitable clutch for competition use. The 1275 comp. clutch doesn't fit and no-one seems to know what will.
The block is an 1100 of the '10CC' casting variety with a clutch having 8.75" bolt x 6 off P.C.D. with 4 dowel holes. Driven plate appears to be c.7.25" dia.
The need is for a stronger than standard cover with an up-rated material on the driven plate.
If anyone can help I'll be most grateful.

Peter
