New clutch setup won't disengage

YR, no problem, thanks for the input. Are you sure a 1" hole is tech-legal even if no longer SFI certed (some day I may want to run it on an NHRA facility with good tech. Doubt it will be fast enough to require a blowshield but still)...

AJ, I did the same sort of guesswork and also came up with about 1". This weekend I am going to get under with a dial indicator, ruler, etc. while my GF pushes the pedal. I'd rather do it the other way round but she is not much for lying on the ground under cars! :rolleyes:

Yup. It's legal. If you go 11.50 or slower, you can even run a stock bell. I am right now because I have to send my can back to Lakewood and have them put a window in the damn thing so I can tune the clutch. So you're ok with the 1 inch hole.

Just make sure you measure out from the block plate to the face of the FW and drill the hole. A buddy drilled his under the flywheel and it was about impossible to get a feeler gauge in there.
