Post by: 21.04 on May 06, 2026, 12:31:05 AM
Looking for an OEM rebuildable 289 10.5" pressure plate (part number C3OZ-7563-A) that has the arms wih counterweights and ends wirh the hex head screws on the ends.  Mainly just interested in the plate for the hat and the attached arms.  Need a piece with no severe rust, pit free with no un natural marks

I have this unidentified unit in my inventory. It may be what you are looking for but the plate measures 10 3/8" rather than 10 1/2". I am not aware of any Ford clutch of this size, so maybe they rounded up/down?

Photos attached. I invite anyone having more information to comment.

I've only inspected 3 HP pieces but all are right at 10.5."  Most of them will have testing marks on the face that are like 1/16" round dots as seen in the below photo.  This particular one has a dot in three places.  Measuring the distance between the pair of mounting holes on each of the three legs of the steel hat should be right at about 3 1/8" from center to center.  Also, the early HP pieces will have all light green springs.
