1968 Barracuda Notch - Plano, TX
I was planning on installing the transmission today and putting the engine and trans under the car tomorrow. The best laid schemes of mice and men / Often go awry.
Depth of clutch plate from transmission mounting surface was 3". From the transmission to the throw out bearing was 1.7". That is a difference of 1.3". The required clearance is 0.15" to 0.2". The kit comes with 10 spacers of 0.090" each, using all ten I would still have 0.400" of clearance, or about 0.250" too much. I called the tech support line. Apparently I need the 0.500" spacer behind the "bearing retainer" which will ship Monday.
