clutch question: flat head vs ohv engines
ok so i have a silly question. i see in the books it lists a different clutch for a flathead and a ohv engine. i pulled a clutch from a flat head in a basket i got. it appears to be the same taper and about the same overall size as a newer one.
so will a clutch from say a 96 fit a late 80's cart, and work ok? thanks guys. -Aaron |

Re: clutch question: flat head vs ohv engines
carts to 96 all went the same direction. also a drive does not really care what direction it goes. no directional ramp in it. the driven clutches are a different story. although with a torque spring in them a cc driven will go either way.

Re: clutch question: flat head vs ohv engines
i do know that the spring color from one to the other is different........one is red and the other green .........now i don,t know this 1st hand but was told way back when that you couldn,t use one if it had the other??????????? its the direction of rotation that opens them...........................

Re: clutch question: flat head vs ohv engines
The drive can spin both ways.
Different springs and weights are due to different horsepower and torque. |
