Hi all, as the title says, im wondering if anyone here that has used or is using a Powertrain Technology hydraulic release bearing, in particular their Street-Max one, i have been quoted by them a price of $319 US which im ok with, but what i'm unsure of is the website says it does't need any shims / or anything to adjust so how do you set up the gap between it and clutch fingers? i'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to these things so any advice is much appreciated.

I've had their hydraulic bearing in my small block stroker for about 3 years now. Pedal effort is like a new car. Although I have an average

I've had their hydraulic bearing in my stroker small block for about 3 years now. Pedal effort is like a new car. I'd recommend a diaphragm pressure plate and not a three finger stock type as it may be too much pressure for the seals. There and many videos on YouTube on setting the free play. Sometimes it helps to "see" it done rather than have someone explain it.
