53 has it right. Get a Centerforce clutch to fit what you have. They have excellent tech service to get it right the first time.

Thanks for your time to post these great pictures. Your's are always top notch, but this group is just super!
Pretty sure the '52 Dodge P/U I owned yrs. ago had a Gemmer box - I rebuilt it. Just saying, if its a transplant, could be from lots of applications.
"I'll figure something out and get the pics back somehow." I'll be anxiously awaiting. Just reading about them is cool. Sorry I'm a day (or two)...
