my mechanic understood that manual suggesting 5+5 but he reached the conclusion that he will add one extra steel clutch plate on top of the last steel plate (double on top of each other) to compensate difference in thickness with old ones. so the tranny will have 6 steel plates with 5 clutch discs. is that ok?

Here is with space if I use 5+5 is that correct?

My mechanic suggesting 6 steel and 5 band clutch in order to fit in like pic is that correct? or there should be a bit of space inside ? In that case I d use 5+5 but there will be more space that mechanic is not feeling comfortable with. He is not Buick expert though

Attached are photos when I use 5 pairs and 6 pairs you can see that with 6 pairs they reach the top limit while with 5 pairs they are less by 1,5 mm should I use 5 or 6 pairs?

actually my car had 5 pairs but indeed the clutch discs thickness is different probably due to the fact that they are not swollen yet by transmission fluid! but when we put 5 pairs in their place they are not fitting fully! there is a gap of almost 1.5 mm. my mechanic is suggesting putting 6 steel plates and 5 clutch discs in-between cos with this stack they are fitted correctly in their cylinder box! should i put 5 pairs as were in the car counting on the fact that they will be swollen later or go with 6 steel+ 5 discs in-between? thanks

Rebuilding my 1955 Buick century dynaflow My mechanic found 5 of CLUTCH DISCS and 5 steel clutch plates in picture bellow in my car , while there is 6 new ones of each in the rebuilding kit I got from fusick . Also the thickness of the new ones are different from old ones. How many should b there? new ones are thinner than old ones. my mechanic is suggesting that we use 6 steel plates with 5 clutch discs inbetween . but my question is why there is a different in numbers and thickness between old and new ones?

My Buick super was modified to electric fuel pump before I purchased it. There is a delay in the morning to turn it on and I believe pump is not functioning properly . Should I go back to original manual pump which is ways more expensive to find and buy or would that electric pump attached photo at bob’s would do the job just fine?

Thanks problem is I fixed mine a bit and it’s inside engine now. So I can’t get it out to measure !

fly wheel ring gear broken teeth. it is a super 1949 ser 50 engine 248 original engine do i have to change the whole flywheel? or just the flywheel ring gear. is that it at bob's? any clue for a cheaper solution? thanks https://bobsautomobilia.com/engine/flywheel-ring-gear-1939-52-s.40-50-.-frg-393/

starter is new, we can detect broken teeth in the flywheel ring gear. that is what i believe i need! mechanic told me we can turn the sides of the flywheel ring gear (flip it) in order to get the intact side of the ring interacting with starter! would that work?

How to fix this? Seems like broken teeth in flywheel. Do I have to get a new one, or could it be fixed? And if I have to buy a new one, where to get it?
