So, bit of info if you replace a clutch anytime soon. The new clutch came with a pilot bushing and an installation/alignment tool.

I test fit the new bushing to the input shaft on the bench and it fit fine.

After I pressed the bushing in, the alignment tool fit, but the input shaft from the trans did not.

I polished the bushing out so the shaft would fit, then installed the clutch. The pressure plate wouldn't fit over the input shaft, so I put it on with the alignment tool and the input shaft once again wouldn't go in.

I had to loosen the pressure plate and realign it with the input shaft before it would actually go together properly.
