T-56 Transmission Install Thread
How to figure out the shim thickness needed????
You collapse the TOB all the way while its on the trans, and measure from the mounting flange of the trans to the TOB's face. Then with the clutch and bellhousing installed to engine, you measure from PP fingers to trans mounting flange of bellhousing. This is the clearance of TOB to clutch when its all together. I shoot for .120, some guys say .100, some say .100 minumum to .200 max. This video shows the just of the measuring process.
