Clutch

So I bought a new 10" clutch for DC and it doesnt fit
Its too small. Anyone know how I can figure out the correct clutch size? I see that DC offers a 10 and 11" version. My truck is a 64 F100 w/292 and 3spd 3.03 tranny on the column.

I measured the presure plate and the disc and they are both 10 1/2". I can only find the 10 and 11" clutches. I also checked an original Ford shop manual and it states the disc is 10 1/2" in diameter ???? I'm clueless.

Did some checking around and was told that Ford used a 10 1/2" clutch ONLY on the 64 model ????? ND please help.

Because, it's for a 1962/64 F100 I-6.

My truck is a 64 F100 w/292 and 3spd 3.03 tranny on the column.

Whoever told you that doesn't know diddly-squat!
Two different sized clutches were offered for 1956/64 F100 Y blocks: 10 1/2" and 11"

But there's only one flywheel, which has a 12 3/8" bolt circle the pressure plate bolts to.

This means you can use either the 10 1/2" or 11" clutch.

C3TZ7550G (replaced B7C7550B) .. 10 1/2" Clutch Disc / Obsolete

GRIESEL MOTOR CO, in Okarche OK has 1 = 405-263-7242.

GREEN SALES CO. in Cincinnati OH has 16 = 800-543-4959.
---------------------------------------------------------
B6C7563A .. 10 1/2" Pressure Plate / Obsolete

GRIESEL MOTOR CO. has 1.

GREEN SALES has 3.

I'd be willing to bet that Griesel will be a heck of a lot cheaper than Green Sales.
