Right John, and if it had a dual stage clutch and the two shafts, a single stage clutch would not fit. So, in my opinion, if it came from the factory with a dual stage clutch, and now have a single stage clutch, someone have replaced the entire transmission. But, look to Norway, my MF 35 has the deluxe seat, and the deluxe tractormeter, but the standard single stage clutch. And mine is original, I know that for a fact. But, it was imported to Norway as new, and I assume the company that imported MF to Norway ordered a standard MF 35, but with the extra seat and tractormeter. Or, maybe Massey Ferguson offered that as a special export option. So, maybe there are some odd tractors around here and there that is no entirely as the book says. Then, there is one more option, and that is that maybe in 1957 your tractor was a deluxe tractor, but maybe in 1958 it would have had a dual stage clutch too. I see in my TE 20 shop manual that a TED 20, with the kerosene engine, it had 23.9 hp, and the 85 mm standard engine, but everyone says that the first TED 20 had the 80 mm engine that had about 22-23 horsepower It does not show up in the manual.
