chimaera clutch replacement part??
Discussion
I'm having my chassis fixed (500 chimaera) at the moment and figured i'd do my clutch at the same time, so apart from the cover plate, drive plate, fork release bearing housing bush, pivot ball, Bearing Carrier, slave cyl push rod, slave cylinder and the master cyl is there anything else i would need.
also apart from the normal tvr dealers is there anywhere else these items could be purchased from.

Worth speaking to JE Engineering, they brought all the stock from Morgan when they stopped using the RV8. I brought my clutch from them and did an exchange on a lightened and balance flywheel. Mine is a 400 though so Im guessing you will need an uprated one. They are miles cheaper though so worth trying them. 01455 202 909

Not wanting to sound pedantic but the telephone number you give is for JE Developments (John Eales). JE Engineering is a completely different company 
I fitted one of John Eales uprated AP clutches, fly wheel with a concentric bearing to my 5L race engine and it is really lovely. Not over expensive either.....NTEL said:

Yes youre right, sorry. JE Developments. I fitted one of John Eales uprated AP clutches, fly wheel with a concentric bearing to my 5L race engine and it is really lovely. Not over expensive either.....you will need a clutch release bearing, i doubt you will need to replace everything you have listed, i have lost count of how many chim and griff clutches i have fitted over the last ten years, but most only need the clutch and the release bearing and inspection of the other parts you have listed. check release arm to if its bent, clean and relube parts that need it. i would only fit the ap clutch for 5ltr chim and griff most other clutches are either not upto it or give to heavy pedal or on or off feel.
