Quinton Hazell one is not bad, but the B&B is best, IMO.

Stay away from cheapo asian kits- the clutch facings are like cardboard.
If you have a 1275 or bigger I'd go the B&B blue dot `S' one. I'm now using an orange dot diaphragm, but the blue is pretty good. :wink:

Depends..
You can buy a B&B S blue dot clutch kit from Karcraft for $107.40. That gets you the diaphragm, clutch plate & a proper UK made release bearing (not a Jap crap one). :lol:

If you want the orange dot diaphragm, you have to buy the parts separate.
Cost is $50.35 (drive plate) = $23.77 (bearing) + $105.96 (diaphragm)

So, the blue dot S kit is a bloody good deal. 8)

<edit> Karcraft also have a Q/H S kit for $95.50 or so, but I'd spend the extra and go the B&B.
