Two stage clutch

Post by dwol »

Been a while since I posted to this form. So what I'm trying to do now is take an older fordson engine that originally had a single stage clutch and mate it to a super major chassis that is designed with the two-stage clutch. Can I put the two stage clutch and flywheel from the super major on the older engine and will all mate up and fit? Ideally I will be able to keep the two-stage clutch and utilize the older engine in the super major components.
Kind regards,

No problem it will all match straight up. You realise you will be dropping up to about 10 hp with a Major engine in a Super Major. Two stage clutch and flywheel will just go straight on the Major engine.

Thanks Brian! Glad to hear it. I realize I will loose some HP, but need to get my baby running.
