That is a good deal. Works in stock chain primary hubs or use a Rivera belt clutch hub. Cures all the shell wobble problems with one assembly.
The clutch is pre-adjusted at the factory. No worries.
The 2 sizes of assorted shims (not shown) are only used after significant mileage. They don't want the diaphragm spring [sort of like a (37871-41) clutch releasing disc] to be flat. So, they provide (4) .020" (large) and (4) .030" (small) shims to maintain the diaphragm spring (arch-gap) of .010" - .020". Large shims install sandwiched on the shouldered nuts, for less arch. Small shims are used on the hub stud nuts for more arch.
Get the clutch hub holding tool (PC-3000) and hub puller (PC-2000) too. You can't use your stock style clutch hub puller, on a (PC-1000-A) Pro-Clutch . You need the clutch tools and they're not that expensive.
Mine is the 11mm x 1-1/2 w/ Kevlar belt. Don't ever bend a belt or it's history.
PC -1000-A
The hub nut (PP-016-T) is not included. You need it.
The seal (PP-017) is not included with the hub nut. You need it, but it's the same (James) as the OEM 12014.
imo, anytime a manufacturer utilizes an OEM type part in a hi-tech assembly, it's a class act.
Thanks Mike.

The Pro-Clutch you see is the (PC-1000-A)
The hub nut is another part and the oil seal is another part. The Rivera site is hard to navigate. If you click catalog you get a list of page numbers and it's a stab-and-guess as to which page you'll get to see. I told them about the poor navigation and he told me, "Yep , well, you're talking about a Random Index feature and they're an expensive system to install, unless of course, you'd like to pay for one."
Anyway, Go to Technical Support and drop-down menu to Installation Guides and Clutches. There's the same instructions you see above, except I think mine are easier to read.

Look for:
Pro-Clutch Installation Instructions - PC-1000-A for all 1936-1984 Big-Twin applications
For the ring gear? Imo, get a Rivera drum. Don't know the part or page number for that. You can't just punch in a part number and find it in that list of pages on Rivera's site either. That would be a Random Index feature.
Oh yeah, I get it, you were talking about Mike's pics.

No idea what clutch that is , seems every one changes there look every couple of years. looks like a diaphram type clutch.
I can not see if the ears are on the back of the tranny , but the front ones are there . The easiest way to install an electric starter would be to use the 65 inner primary , but since you have a 3 " belt system , you will need to go to a custom set up just for wide belt drive ( open ) they've got a bolt on bracket for an electric start or a special inner primary.
Can't help ya on the ring gear for the clutch shell , not sure if you could tac a stock one on that shell .

Pantastic - you might have a Phase 3 belt drive there, it's hard to see for sure. Phase 3's been out of business for quite awhile.
On my '51 FL I have the 'Silent Drive' from SuperMax Belt Drives for a year and a half or so. In the past have run a couple other brands.
I highly recommend SuperMax in any width belt.
