Thank you for all the insight and advice - including part numbers, I will try and get sorted over here and post any useful info back here as appropriate.

Hi Dave, Just to confirm, I imagine you purchased a 1998 USA GEMS Plus 8 from across the border. It is a very different variant from the later post mid 2000s GEMS and the stock Plus 8s of the day. All Plus 8s after 1996 are VERY different from each other. However the clutch system is the same as the other R380s.They are stock LR slaves. The part numbers you need are on the items themselves and can be changed over time. .

You can buy them through the Morgan outlet in Toronto, CMC, aka the Beer brothers or a UK supplier. UK/Canada delivery is very fast. I suggest you buy aftermarket and save 90%. Take the parts you remove and have them refurbished and sleeved in stainless steel so when their time comes again, they will then last forever and never ruin a Morgan day. Carry them in the car until then..

L.

P.S. If you need more help, ask.
