New Penton Owner

Thanks - I probably should have got a new basket but I managed to file the old one smooth in the areas where the tabs had dug in.

That sure is a very nice Penton.

Just for the record, new clutch baskets are available.

Is grease the best option for the paper gasket on the clutch cover ?

I used grease with the paper gasket and it seems good - no leaks.  I also took your advice and put in a new shaft case seal and a new o-ring.
