Gen3 hemi tkx swap
I had a similar issue putting a 4 speed into a car that was originally a 727 because of the shallow pilot bore. I did a lot of measuring trying to avoid doing this but I ended up having to cut the end of the input shaft by almost 1/2". It's actually not uncommon to have to do that. If the stack up is off, do what needs to be done to make it work. Trimming the input shaft won't hurt it as long as the area within the pilot bushing or bearing makes full contact with the I.D.
If I'm missing something, I apologize and disregard what I suggested.
Maybe I misunderstood but he asked specifically how much travel the throwout bearing should have? The concept is simple and should be the same no matter what the application. There should be very little travel for the reasons I gave. Too much travel and you'll potentially push the piston out of the bore.Too little travel and the clutch won't disengage.
