(Kelly you need to measure the clearance with a feeler gauge at full travel, hot.
Since you went to a dual disc, now you need .035" for each disc.


Yah-but IMO, that's a bit more nebulous with multiple disc clutches. I definitely need to have another look at it while hot, but there was so much stroke at the slave, and so much separation at the pressure plate while cold, I discounted the amount of stroke as being a problem. Visually, there could easily be 3-4 times that much clearance. Problem is nothing positively extracts the discs and floaters from the flywheel. They just have to float on the input shaft splines and although you can see the stack relax when the clutch is disengaged, the gap is just between the last disc and the pressure plate. I figure, if the floater plate hangs up a bit on the guides, or the discs on the input shaft splines, the gap measure is not very meaningful. I figure I need to have someone disengage the clucth while hot, and then shut the engine down while keeping the clutch disengaged so I can have a look at where the pieces in the clutch stack land.
