I just installed a T-5 in my '41 using the adapter from Buffalo and an 11" clutch disc (RCF4212). It's acting like the clutch is not fully releasing. With the clutch in I can not shift into gear. If I start the engine with it in gear it creeps forward even with the clutch disengaged. When the clutch is fully depressed I measure about 90 thousandths clearance between the disc and flywheel. How much should it be? I also replaced the pilot bushing. Is it possible it needs to be driven in further? I did check for clutch disc movement by installing it and the transmission without the pressure plate and throwout bearing and it seemed to have plenty of movement. What did I miss? I'd like to have a few hints before I tear it down again. Thanks.
