Re: EA81 headaches and heartbreak
G'day Bennie, appreciate the checklist of options regarding the seized EA81. You're advice in the past has been invaluable. It really has me scratching my head as it cranked smoothly and turned-over just fine before I left it to sit for a bit while tracking down a replacement carby. Put in plenty of...

Re: EA81 headaches and heartbreak
Bantum & Silverbullet, Thanks for taking the time to respond to my 'cry for help'. Starting a thread on the Texas rebuild would make 'War and Peace' seem like a light read. I mean this car came with some crazy bush repairs (not to mention a few live rounds) such as a cable that ran directly from the...

Re: Clutch Plate diameter

Last time I did one of these was for a 1992 and I found a kit on eBay that ticked all the boxes i.e. fit models 84-94 suitable for an EA81 etc, didn't even look at the diameter. But having the two different flywheels t...

Clutch Plate diameter
G'day all. Looking for some advice. Planning to put a new clutch in a 1990 project Brumby and want to know if it matters whether the new clutch plate is 200mm or 225mm? FYI the input spline has 21 teeth. There is a bit of a twist. When I bought the car (a barn find) it came with an extra engine bloc...
