Borg and Beck clutch cover springs

[Simon Sadubin]

Dear TABC,

Amongst all the bits a got with TC2575, was a new Borg and Beck 7 1/4" clutch plate and cover. I just pulled it out the other day to check it out and noticed the springs are a light blue colour.

I've searched for information about pressure plate springs and found on the MGAguru site the following references to TC clutch plate springs:

Clutch spring colour codes - Compliments of John Lambie, Classic Spares

Clutch pressure plate 7-1/4 inch (six springs)
MG TC Yellow 120 lbs
Red 130 lbs
light blue 150 lbs


Looks like I've got the heaviest springs for the pressure plate. I'm hoping that it won't lead to a very heavy clutch pedal .....
Does anyone know what was the standard spring for the TC ?

regards,

Simon TC2575
