That's a good idea, I will inquire about that. Would save time as well.

Today I was able to get the dust shield for the bell housing done and installed. Turned out pretty good I guess. They'll stop dust anyway.

The drivers side also serves as a spring point for the second clutch fork spring

Passengers side was a little more work and had to weld tangs on the upper right to keep it from pushing into the flywheel.
