I'm not a big fan of using the clutch bell for the brake drum, but in my application (using a .15 engine) it might suffice.

Thanks, I checked the RC10GT parts. I like the affordability of Associated parts, but I'd prefer a brake hub that 1) will fit a 5mm shaft without reaming, and 2) doesn't need a hole drilled in the jackshaft for a dowel pin.
