All,
Put disk in backwards in a TR3 once. Trans went back in fine but clutch 
wouldn't disengage. Splined shaft holder (technical term) on the disk  is 
offset, long protrusion goes toward the transmission. If not it sort of drags 
on the flywheel and doesn't disengage so well. We were trying for the record 
replacing TR clutches back in 1963. Did it in 37 minutes, now if the disk had 
just been in the proper direction...
