That's pretty funny, Jason. stale doughnut
I did something similar, but with a much less important part...the anti-rattle
spring that goes on the throw-out bearing, clutch shaft.
I should have tidied my work bench a little earlier, I would have seen it.
I thought long, of a way to remedy the matter with a substitute so I wouldn't
have to pull the trans. Then I decided that in the time taken to thing about
it, I could have the trans out.
I thought it was good practice in the case of a R&R at the track too.
It think it took a little over an hour to fix my mistake.

You know you're working too late into the morning hours when you wake up in a
hot sweat with an image of a stray throw-out bearing sitting on the bench.
Indeed, the transmission was installed.
Everything bolted up and secure.
And the throw-out bearing was left on the bench.
Like a stale doughnut left for the bugs.
It's funny because its true.
One of my bigger screw ups in a while...
