Did Repco make uprated clutch pressure plates or were they based on original fitment? just trying to work out what is in my gt motor |

If the clutch did not slip it must be OK. |

The Repco catalogue from 1984 shows the same pressure plate on the Mini and the Cooper S/Clubman GT. (part number deleted) It shows a different driven plate though. |

Measure the thickness of the diaphragm spring and compare it to a blue dot S one. I think same or thicker. I don'thave one here, will check tomorrow. |

I found some more info in some other Repco catalogues. I don't expect anyone is interested though. |

The Repco one I have the spring measures 2.35mm thick. My AP grey dot one is 2.5mm. Both blue dot Cooper S ones here measure 2.10mm. I seem to remember this Repco one was the same thickness as an orange dot one. |
