> happened up on a 1913 Stover 22 hp engine down in south west texas last weekend and brought it home ,,,,have a couple of questions,,,what is the correct color, and what type of wood is used for the shoes or pads in the clutch ?,,, the current wood is a little worn, but it feels very light, even lighter than a soft wood,,,,maybe because its so dried out because of being in such an arid climate for so many years,,, ?? i'd think a dense wood would be used in a clutch,,, ??
