Got that tip from the MGONC Tip #1 book. Interesting reading from a
historical point of view but has some good suggestions as well.

Yup, it's 1.5 pitch...good tip about the motor bolt!

 Fred,
You can use one of the long bolts that hold the engine to the frame.
The spacers can be used as well when compressing the clutch plates.

Cool..my local bolt guy said 1.75 is easy, and 1.5 is very hard to come
by. I am trying to find a bolt to compress the pressure plate to
install the clutch w/o tweaking the intermediate plate. On the T3 there
are holes to see through. Not so on the Eldo.

 Fred,

I think 12 x 1.75. The thread is the same as the threads on the shock
boss....the part that threads into the frame.

73 Eldo (motor finally together)
78 T3/949
