Thanks Anthony. I have read this thread as well (and the referenced FFR thread) and have tried most of the items. The only ones I haven't tried are the pry bar against the clutch fork (which I will try), the screw driver to pry off the plate(can't do this without taking off the bell housing which I want to avoid) and also loosening the clutch cover bolts (which again, means taking off the bell housing which I would like to avoid). The TO bearing moves fine as well.

Anyway, thanks for posting the link.

I talked with Southern Automotive engine builder today. I ran through what I have been through thus far and he didn't have any more ideas. Said I would need get into the clutch. This means taking out the driveline, trans, bellhousing, etc. I am going to have to use the help of my local mechanic as I can't do it by myself.

Thanks to everyone who offered suggestions. If anyone has any other ideas, please let me know.

Best Regars,
Khan
