I'm reassembling my aluminum '62 powerglide for a 6 cyl, it's the original and hadn't been apart before.

I can't get the clearance for the reverse clutch pack (right now there's a 3/16" gap and it should be .016-.040")

My trans came with a select reverse pacer plate with no Bellville spring or wave washer... I'm wondering if the gap is normal for this situation (or should the spacer should be thicker, or find a spring / wave washer...)

Thanks for any advice,

Matt
