Bentley Clutch.

When the parts for the strengthened Bentley clutch cover to N.Sch.4502 are ready, would you please fit them to B-5 unit. This unit already has the correct type of flywheel fitted, and we will arrange for a trial of the clutch on a production chassis as soon as you let us know the engine is ready.
