Hi Bob,
Something that is VERY important is ensuring you have got all of the correc=
t bolts in place for the bell housing (that is, the bolts that hold the tra=
nsmission to the engine) and you put the right bolts in the right holes.=C2=
=A0 Several of the bolts are actually "locating pins". They are a specific =
diameter with a shoulder (none-threaded portion) and must go in the specifi=
c proper holes.=C2=A0 These ensure proper alignment of the trans and engine=
, and therefore also ensure proper alignment of the throwout bearing and pr=
essure plate.=C2=A0 Cheap insurance - buy all new bolts so you know you've =
got the correct proper bolts, and spend time carefully ensuring you put the=
right bolts in the right holes.=C2=A0=C2=A0
Regards,Tim Holbrook1971 TR6 (which went through 3 throwout bearings in 199=
9 when I was daily driving it)

My current set up (which I intend to replace) is a Luk disc, pressure plate=

What are your experiences and recommendations?
Thanks.=C2=A0Bob FabieFredericksburg, VA___________________________________=
