One has to be really careful when using these wide throw-out bearings on any diaphragm type clutch. I would surely check for any potential interference before an installation.

Most of these pressure plates were surely NOT designed specifically for our Flathead Ford engines and associated parts!

Anything is possible. Before installing mine, I made sure. There was enough clearance, but my buddy's ordeal was too fresh to take a chance, so I removed them.
