ok thanks rev Im running standard a12 trim inc flywheel I took the spacer off and fit a spigot bush,, the bearing carrier im using is the larger one
I have a half plate which isnt as thick as the one thats installed now,, the half plate i pulled off when my auto came off, this has a home for the starter But im not sure this would fit the manual box,
It just seems as if there is too much movemnt of the throwout arm before the bearing even touches,the pressure plate,

thanks to everyone that helped out a long the way and to nick (greendog) to go out of his way to bring me the dummy shaft had the box up within 15 minutes after getting home, champion!
one slight complication took the brake pedal out to replace it with a skinnyer one
oh look theres no bracket for the clutch pedal theres a wreckers local that has some y's and they are open tomoro
will have it running by tomoro arvo!
closest experience ive had to driving the y since i pulled the auto out is i got my brother to make engine sounds while pushing my car out of the garage
cant wait to see what the tachometers doing when i reach 80plus k's!
one more thing.
when running 5 speeds is anyone running the spacer or plate between the engine and gearbox? when it came time to bolting up the crossmember it was a bit of a squeeze to get the bolts in, like the box was too far back also it seems there is too much play in the throwout arm before the bearing hits the pressure plate
how much movement does it take before the clutch is fully disengaged?,, as in from the point were the bearing touches the pressure plate to the clutch been fully disengaged?
thanks heeps Jason
