            .........If your 68 Fasty still has the
original swing axle tranny, you should be ordering the
1970-down clutch kit. The 1971 and newer clutch kits
were designed to be used with a support sleeve for the
T/O bearing. The original 68 trannies did not have 
these and had no provision for them. If, in fact, your
tranny IS original, you should have :

(1.) 200mm flywheel (of course, all 12volts did)
(2.) 200mm clutch disc ( same as above)
(3.) 1967(?)- 1970 pressure plate ( with round collar)
(4.) appropriate T/O bearing to accomodate above plate.

                 I have no experience with CIP's setup,
as I have never ordered one from them. It would depend
on the manufacturer. The Type 1 clutch kits from the
same year are identical. Bolt it on.
