Just a question, did you use pilot bolts to support and direct the
transmission in place upon your last assembly?

Thanks Kendall, I did go out to the garage last night and used a pry
bar to
check the end float.  Did not use a mic but by feel, didn't detect
anything
measureable so I'll put that in the column of reviewed but not
probable.

Hi Darcy,

The last time I had the symptoms that you
describe... I had lost the thrust
washer at the rear main bearing. And the
reason the clutch stopped working
properly is because the whole crankshaft had
about a 1/4" of travel front to
back. I let it go too long before I discovered
the root cause and ended up
with a messed up crank and block. Not cool.
Hopefully not your problem, but
you should definitely check the end float
before trying anything else.
