Wrong slant 6 pressure plate

i agree with above as you do up the levers or the diaphragm centre sinks
you will find it much easier to fit your release bearing carrier and fork.

if you have no alignment tool use your socket extention to get it nearly right
bolt it up
fit the throw out bearing and fork
undo all clucth pressure plate bolts to "just gripping" clutch plate level
install trans onto the bell
do up all clutch over bolts

avoids the fight when the plate is not properly aligned....clutch swap at track or side of road this way works

and you will soon know if the clutch plate is in backwards, your clutch plate cushdrive/ sprung centre will machine a groove through the bolt heads that hold the flywheel on... makes a bit of noise and the car tries to drive through the wall with clutch in or out.

:) and you never do that again.


one other thing... some flyhweels have a dowel or 2 and some clutch pressure plates have only 1 or 2 dowel holes if yours is a dowelled set up the dowels need to align with holes in the cover.
