Tx for the correct nomenclature. I sound like such a noob. There were two orientations that lined up with the pins on the flywheel so I was unsure. I guess it must not make a difference. I do have the alignment tool and a new throw out bearing. I bought the ARP bolts for the flywheel. I'll have to pick up some locktite. Any particular type? I was going to look for high temp stuff.

The input shaft is supported by bearings etc and it would take a LOT of force to do any damage to it so I'm sure your fine.
There are holes in the pressure plate that sit on dowel pins on the flywheel. They are offset so it will only fit one way. Be sure to use an alignment tool when installing the clutch so that the input shaft will slide threw and in to the pilot bearing with out a lot of effort.
Also don't forget to use locktight when installing the flywheel bolts. You should also put in a new throw out bearing as well. They are about $35-40 and it sucks when you swap everything out and then it goes bad a few thousand miles down the road. |
