 Brian;All perfectly normal.Just be sure that the throwout bearing is compa=
tible with the =E2=80=9Cfingers.=E2=80=9D If the fingers are straight the t=
hrowout bearing face should be rounded. If the fingers have a crook in them=

Hey Friends
just installed a new to me (rebuilt) laycock PP and a new clutch disc. As I=
 tightened the PP the fingers ended up pretty much flat across, no longer p=
eaked. So when the hydraulics is engaged the throw out will press the clutc=
h fingers deflecting inward (invert from when on the bench). Makes me uncom=
fortable / doesn't seem right.=C2=A0
Normal / Correct?=C2=A0
am hoping to put the trans back in tomorrow afternoon, comments please

ThanksBrian
