Partco, Autella, Brown Bros. All carry these bits. Halfords used to, but it's all badged as their own stuff now (still made by Quniton Hazel).

Thank you for the info....

I've found that the cluch parts needed are from a Mondao 1.6 zetec. and the starter motor is from a ford sierra 2.0 DOHC. Does all this sound about right??? Whats the Clutch release bearing from? all the other bits i'am fine about.

Thank you all...

qh is good with the no quibble warrenty but the clutches can b heavy luk is dearer but better

also qh alsop sell 2 different #"makes" of bearings the cheaper 1's com in green purple and black boxs and prt no. starts vkr and most probbly made oin same factory (we dont get any more warrentys bac anyway)

and moprod is the same stuff in a different box and in my experiance moprod is usually sold cheaper

we also tend to get more vrake discs back than any other make we sell brembo and adl blue print (jap stuff)

ACDigital, have you sourced your engine mounts yet? We have been looking into mounting a Zetec 1.8 in our Locost for a while now, but are having trouble finding any mounts. We have been left with the option of manufacturing our own, but have a severe lack of welding skills!! Any info on this?

W***field. Thats where i got mine from. Also had problems getting Clutch release bearing (Q’Hazel CCT 133) Q'Hazel only do compleat clutch's. so had to get ford's own. I've found out it's from a sierra 1.6L with 4 speed type E box. Going to fit it tonight.

For future info:

Places like Burton Engineering, Rally Design and others sell separate release bearings, clutch plates and covers.

It's what I did (from Burtons).

Cheers,

David

when i replaced my clutch i tried 3 places - all would only sell a complete clutch - all i wanted was friction and release bearing. There are places that will, just not where I tried.

About 100 quid all up for a type 9 to ford v6 cologne - not nice!
