Thanks for the responses guys. To answer some of the questions, I did check that the disk was in correctly, I do shift from 1st to Reverse to avoid grinding that way. I have checked the fork, zbar, and linkage for bending, cracked welds. I put a brand new pilot bearing in. The transmission falls right into place on install. I am just perplexed. I will check the firewall for twisting.
Dibbons, if you have a picture of the brace you created, please attach it. Thanks.
I tried to do the runout measurement but struggled to get the setup to work withh the engine in the car up on jackstands.
Should I try to adjust that clutch with it warm? What should I aim for measurement wise for release of disk and flywheel?
