'37 Lasalle/clutch question...

We have a flywheel that will accept a Ford 10" pressure plate for our 331 Hemi. Does anyone know what disc has the right spline to fit the Lasalle and is 10"? Anyone have a nice Ford Flathead 10" pressure plate that they are not using?

Thanks!

A LaSalle disc is getting hard to find, as no modern vehicles (that I know of, anyway) use that spline. Even decent used discs go for a good buck.

 

Try Kanter I just got a plate throw out and disk from them.
Good luck!

can any Studebaker guys verify input shaft diameter, spline count and disc diameter for the Lark

if you have a clutch and brake shop nearby they may be able to make a disc for you using an International Scout center and attaching a 10" disc

doh!
just saw this thread is a year old..
like talking to a ghost

 

Sorry - we work a little slow - still looking for a 10" disc with the right spline for a LaSalle - can anyone please confirm if they know of any? Also, - what are the part numbers/years for the Scout and/or Dodge discs that people use?

 

Fort Wayne Clutch in Fort Wayne, IN built a clutch for a guy I talked to at a show there a few years back, he told me they used a late '80s Ford diesel clutch spline I think. If you call them I am sure they can hook you up.

I used a mid-fifties Chev V-8 disc with my Olds/LaSalle setup.....

 

??????????? They're two different spline sizes.

 

Hmmm....will get the specs, and possibly the p/n.

 

Well, this Chev will not help you; its 11in., 10 spline w/ 1 1/4in. input......

Check older threads on this subject; if I recall correctly, the Scout disc came up a couple
of times.

 

1-1/4 -10 sounds right for Lasalle...maybe that's not a Chevy disc you have......

Any Chevy car or light truck disc I ever saw was 1 1/8.
