    Hey guys, I need some help finding a pressure plate, it looks like a GM bolt pattern, the bolt pattern being symmetrical at 5-3/4, 10.5 disk service and the hard part is the Diaphragm center opening is 2.750 ..
    The one I have here in the picture came from a Flathead car, mounted to a Ram Clutches Aluminum Flywheel, cant find one anywhere with the 2-3/4 center ...

    Did the ends of the fingers get worn off, and they used to be longer?

  4. Hey Mark, you can get what you have rebuilt. Call Dallas Differential & Gear or Wade Transmission & Gear. They should point you in the right direction.

    WPT in Wichita Falls rebuilds pressure plates, & clutches .. but you shouldn't have to go that far.

    They'll measure your spring rates, & disassemble what you have, & put it back the way it was sold or better. Car weight, power, driving habits etc.
