Hi I am after a k style clutch release fork and shaft.

If anyone can help that would be great.

Thank you

Michael

Hello, Mike.
Why not use a direct drive from the engine sans clutch assembly altogether. Many people do this with preselectors thereby doing away with the extra weight and the hassle.

A totally direct connection could in the long run cause damage to the splines on the input shaft of the ENV75, so in my opinion a flexible connection is more advantageous.
You can couple the enginge with the preselector using two M-type prop shaft flanges, because they have the same splines as the input shaft of the ENV75, and on the other hand it is not difficult to fix an M-type propshaft flange to the clutch spigot housing.

Gerhard, I agree that a solid coupling would not be advisable. The one in my photo incorporates silentbloc bushes to facilitate some degree of "give."

I ran a Riley 6 sports car for many years with a solid drive and had no adverse problems whatever. The gearbox was an Armstrong preselector.
Perhaps I was fortunate?

And possess a good degree of mechanical sympathy.
