Default Re: Soft Lock Air Gap Peoblem???

The clutch was brand new from McLeod and the flywheel was also through them. It is a 11" clutch assembly. The disc is a .330

I am running a Doug Nash 5 speed, and am using a Lakewood 15201 bellhousing. The trans input shaft is shorter that what most SBF guys are running, and this requires the use of the 15201 vs. the more commonly used 15202 bellhousing. I have fought, and solved all the clearance issues associated with the fork geometry as far as clearancing to avoid the fork contacting the trans, pressure plate, and bellhousing window during clutch actuation. I am also forced to space my starter out the thickness of 5 ARP washers in order for it to engage properly. I haven't had any isues with the starter at all running these washers to space the starter forward the required amount.

I honestly think that I am to the point of buying a new bellhousing (15202) and installing a longer input shaft in the trans. This combination has been a disaster trying to figure out.
