I am working on a 1955 Ford 640. For installing a new clutch, I ordered new Ford pressure plate shoulder bolt kit. They came Grade 5. Are they ok to use and what would the torque spec be? Or should they have been Grade 8.
Also, I have seen some guys using some kind of lube on the input shaft housing surface where the throw-out bearing rides. I have never lubed this area before. Is it recommended? Or is it better left dry?
Thank you all for any advice you can give me.
