| Dean Houston's ideas help develop The Roadster Factory's uprated clutch kit
(Magic Clutch Kit - Part #RFK1109 and #RFK1620) to solve TR6/TR250 clutch
problems!
"The Roadster Factory began listing its own uprated clutch kit five years
ago, and hundreds have now been sold to satisfied customers. The new clutch kit
was developed by Dave Hagenbuch from ideas provided by J.K.Jackson of
Tallahassee, Florida and by Dean Houston of British Sports Car Works. The new
kit was developed to solve long-term clutch problems experienced by many
TR6 enthusiasts. The new clutch operates easily and includes a long-life
throw-out bearing. We have not experienced clutch failures with our new
system even with customers who had experienced repeated clutch failures in the
past." - The Roadster Factory TR5-TR250 catalog.
