I guess the inital shock of having to take two giant umbrella steps backwards has worn off and the haze has cleared. My plan is too un-load the linkage, un-bolt the pressure plate and slide it back enough to inspect how close the input shaft is to the bushing. I checked with a local place called WEBCO that specializes in clutch/brake parts and they looked into a deeper pilot bushing with the same I.D. and O.D. but the only thing they found was an extra .060 deep. I must have had enough coffee by this time and asked them if I could borrow a stock bushing for a few hours and went to see my friend that is a world class fabricator ( builds the high tech stage stuff on Broadway) and ordered a length of high tensile bronze that should show up tommorrow that he could turn to fit. His thoughts were that to extend some dimension from the crank would be OK but if no part of the input shaft was beyond the face of the flywheel then whatever goes in there would literally be a coupler more than a bushing and does not recommend it. I will keep everyone informed, thanks for the response |
