Doug,
The two 3/8" bolts (actually dowels) as you stated are used for
alignment of the bell housing. I have to be honest, before I switched to
the Gunst bearing I never used them as alignment tools , just lined up
the the trany output shaft & reinstalled the bolts. I don't know how all
those bolts would allow any misalignment. Although , I repeat that I did
use this method on the upgraded throw out bearing & sleeve and it does
work perfect.
As far as "crapy clutch" action goes, I had a problem with a
remanufactured B&B pressure plate. In my case a "new" pressure plate &
Gunst bearing & sleeve has produced the best functioning clutch I have
ever had on a TR6. I think the majority of bad clutch problems are poor
action of the TOB sleeve or broken clutch fork pin.
