Default Wrong Clutch Disc?

A second opinion wanted. Maybe 3rd, 4th, etc.

This fits.


This fits.


This won't fit. Transmission is an M20.


Bought the clutch in kit form: Pressure Plate, Disc, Pilot Bearing, and Alignment tool. Doesn't look right to us.


No way.

What's wrong?

TIA.
Steve

Either you ordered the wrong kit or the supplier sent you the wrong parts.

Your transmission is a 10 spline input shaft which was used up to and including 1970. The clutch is for a 26 spline transmission which was used from 1971 and on. You will need to replace the clutch disc with one for the earlier 10-spline.
