Hi All,
Thanks for the recommendations for the clutch.
I am going to get a Borg & Beck for 3 reasons.
1) had several people recommend it.
2) It is reasonably priced
3) The one that was in the car was a Borg & Beck - it had been in the
car for a few years and it is still in pretty good shape.
Thanks,
Roger Elliott

I installed a Borg & Beck, 3 piece set in my 79 Spitfire this past spring. No
issues on installation or function on my 1600 miles so far.
I gets my vote.

I have to rebuild the bottom end of my engine, so I am going to replace
the clutch at the same time.
Any recommendation on brand?
TRF has LUK for $290 OEM for $195
SpitBits has Coventry for $118
Moss has Borg and Beck $190 and QH $160
BP Northwest has Borg and Beck for $120
Victoria British has an unnamed brand for $140
Oh of course FLAPS Beck/Arnley for $400
It seems like a very wide range of prices. Car basically what European
trim would be - dual SU's compression about 9.2 - so it does not need a
heavy duty or racing type clutch.
Thanks,
Roger Elliott
