Worked on the alignment of the Quick Time #6063 scatter shield/clutch
fork/throwout bearing.  Remember I am using a 6 bolt clutch fork with the
much better bracket.

There was no way to get the clutch fork in the correct position with the
stock holes in the scatter shield.  It was either too far in, or too far
out.  The fulcrum ended up needing to be where the mounting holes were.  So
I drilled two new holes 3/8" farther out and tapped them.

Clutch Fork is in correct position of the TOB in the disengaged position.
The clips on the TOB fully engage the clutch fork.

TOB engaged position, all is still in alignment.

All this will be checked again once the flywheel and clutch is installed.  I
will need to make sure the clutch fork is the proper distance from the
scatter shield base.  This will be done with grade 8 washers.

Note - have to call Quick Time on Monday and get the correct adapter for the
scattershild to trans front bearing retainer.  None is installed in the
above pics.
