I have installed Watts Clutches over the years in 8 transmissions with good results. I am aware that John Watts sold the clutch business a while back. Anybody heard if they will be for sale again. I have one in stock but may need more.

I understand that RV Anderson is going to be selling disks similar to Watts. If RV does they will be the best ever, in other words they will be correct.

From a long thread in March this year I think this post by R.V. Anderson is most useful in this case: http://www.mtfca.com/discus/messages/331880/346293.html?1368838344

"By R.V. Anderson on Thursday, March 07, 2013 - 05:00 pm:
The Watts is no longer being made due to Mr. Watts' retirement. A major factor in the decision was that the price of the material had more than tripled and would require the retail price of a clutch to approach $300.

Terry is correct: I am now making them but from a different material. Since the material is new, I must test them thoroughly using at least several testers, and receive their reports before I will release any for sale.

If anyone is interested in being a tester, please PM me at rvmodelt@netsync.net"
