Throwout bearing issues.
I need some assistance here, Im having clutch slippage issues
I have a Howe Hydraulic throwout bearing #82870 and am utilizing a Centerforce Chevy pressure plate, mated to my Chevy 350 and Jerico 4 speed.
When I do all the clearance measurements of the bellhousing to the pressure plate fingers it seems that my throwout bearing is roughly .20 of an inch to thick....When I install it it Im assuming it is pressing the fingers on the pressure plate which Im assuming is not what you want..
My clutch will not engage properly as a result, the .20 or around 3/16ths which is apparently enough to release the clutch engagement ever so slightly. I have Compared the Howe racing thowout bearing to the stock GM and it is the same size. I need to move the transmission away from the bellhousing or bellhousing away from the motor since I am assuming I can not get a smaller throwout bearing.
Is there some sort of motor plate or spacer Im supposed to be using? Help...I want to get some drive time before the weather gets crappy..
