We believe everyone deserves a more reliable vintage race weekend.
In 2021 we started Griffin Speed Works to support our friends in the vintage racing paddock. Specifically focused on the Austin Healey Sprite / MG Midget (or commonly called Spridgets) and the V4 SAABs.
All the parts we make, and the service we perform are at the same level of total attention that we have for our own racing cars.
We have a few more ideas we’re always working on, and will always take the time to listen to what you need some help with.
We are a distributor for EBC brakes, which we use on all of our racecars, street cars, and tow vehicle.
We resell the complete line of EBC Brake Pads / Shoes / Rotors / Fluid / Pad Wear Sensors and will be happy to provide pricing for your vehicle - just contact us via email and include EBC in the subject line. If you haven’t tried them before, please do! You might be surprised.
Tilton’s 7.25” 1-plate metallic clutch discs are renowned for their durability, torque capacity, and heat capacity. They are well-suited for race applications due to their quick engagement characteristics. This is the most common disc type used in road racing and vintage motorsports with a racing clutch. Metallic clutches are not recommended for street use.
These discs are 10-spline to fit the Sprite and Midget, most BMC cars, and Triumphs. Conveniently, these also fit the V4 SAAB’s Sonett / 95 / 96.
Two different styles for the hub A and F.
F-type is 0.550” thick and generally considered the preferred ‘thick' hub option for a single disk.
A-type is 0.375” and intended for multiple disc clutch setups. Some flywheels may not allow the F-type disc and can instead use the A-type; but with a reduced torque or increased wear on the splines.
The F-type is the correct disc configuration to match with the lightweight Huffaker style Spridget Flywheel, and many other Sprite/Midget flywheel combinations.
