(Ask them for a dashpot!) How could they know about GM clutch head fasteners???? I did learn something today; I did not know clutch heads were common on mobile homes!

RV dealers are a great place to get screwdrivers and bits for clutch heads.
Not a good place to find replacement screws since they are all sheet metal type. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 1,513 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 1,513 | 30's to the 60's GM used clutch screws, apparently primarily on the trucks Bill I've never seen them on Canadian trucks.
